1 / 2Cheetham Park
đ Stalybridge, North West
Free community park in Stalybridge with a gated sandpit play area for young children near the entrance, an older children's climbing frame area further up, and walking trails leading to a hilltop public orchard and wildlife sanctuary.
One of Tamesides hidden gems. The main entrance has 2 big open spaces for ball games etc. A young children's play area with a gated sand pit and further up the hill an older children's play area with climbing frames. But the best bit is the public orchard at the top of the hill and the wildlife sanctuary plus a plethora of wild walking paths. Popular with dog walkers (please pick up your dogs waste) and families alike. A good stroll around Cheathams will get the heart pumping and is a joy for the eye. 10/10.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families comfortable with uphill walking who want a full half-day outdoors. Younger children are well served by the gated sandpit near the entrance, as older ones can tackle the climbing frames and trails further up. The orchard and wildlife sanctuary at the top reward the climb.

âThis is a smallish park, but one which has something for everyone. There are play areas for kids of all areas near the main entrance, then at the top of the hill there are a number of pleasant walks covering both the parkland and the surrounding woods. There was also a traditional ice cream van near the main gates selling proper ice cream, not the whipped stuff, with a 99 being just ÂŖ2.50.â
