★★★★★Featured review by Derek Long

Great little park for the kids and football pitch with smaller goals at either end. The large lake had plenty of fishermen around it, the is a lovely memorial site for the Hillsborough victims which kept immaculate. It's clean and quite busy, check cafe out, it's really good

🏆 Family Action Verdict

An all-round family stop that works for toddlers through to primary school age. Duck feeding at the lake, play equipment, football, and a decent cafe mean multiple family members can find something to do simultaneously. Outdoor cafe seating attracts wasps in warm weather — factor that in with young children who may be frightened.

Reviews from Google

Overview

Mill Dam Adventure Playground sits beside a large lake popular for duck feeding and fishing. Play equipment caters to a wide age range. The cafe has outdoor seating and draws consistent praise for coffee quality, ice cream selection, and reasonable pricing. A football pitch with child-sized goals adds an extra draw for older children. A Hillsborough memorial on the grounds is kept immaculate by the community.
