Parks in Fleetwood

In a coastal town, the first public open spaces you’d think of would probably be the beaches. But there are a number of delightful parks in Fleetwood, go and take a look!

There are windswept and exposed grasslands against the seafront and boating lakes, plus the trees, greenery and tended plants of various proper parks in Fleetwood. With shelter provided by the trees, they’re quite a contrast to the bracing landscape of the beach.

Wyre Council manages the Parks in Fleetwood. Different community groups and volunteers also support many of them. They help to maintain and develop their beauty and function for those who use them today, and for future generations.

Follow the links and look around this section to see more detail about each one. Then pull on your shoes and take a walk – enjoy these green and pleasant spaces – created just for you!

Take a look around the Parks in Fleetwood

Fleetwood Memorial Park

Fully restored over recent years and the flagship green space in the town Fleetwood Memorial Park is a pleasure to visit. Quite unique, it’s one of just a handful of UK parks built to commemorate the end of the Great War. It links the area next to Fleetwood Town FC’s Highbury Stadium almost to the town centre.

Euston Gardens

Restored in recent years, you’ll find the Euston Gardens, as the name suggests, adjacent to the North Euston Hotel. It’s off The Esplanade, in the historic part of the town.

Pocket Park

This little oasis of greenery is a small site in the centre of the town. Find Pocket Park opposite Fleetwood library – there’s a display on the wall which explains its history and how it came about.

The Marine Hall Gardens

As the name suggests, Marine Hall Gardens wrap around the outside of the Marine Hall itself. These gardens include outdoor events space, water features, a skate park and bowling greens.

The Mount Gardens

There’s a rolling green hill at the front of The Mount Pavilion. Did you know that there’s also a lovely park towards the rear? The Mount Gardens wrap right around the delightful grounds of the Mount Pavilion.

Custom House Square

Another small urban park is Custom House Square. Created and opened in November 2022 it’s a small area of planting adjacent to the open air stalls at Fleetwood Market.

Larkholme Grasslands

The harsh, salty sea air puts paid to any notion of ‘parks’ in exposed places, but there’s a very pleasant and natural green space adjacent to Rossall sea wall. Known as Larkholme Grasslands, its primary purpose is flood plain and overflow space for any encroaching high tides. So a ‘meandering swale’ is part of the landscape design, along with wildlife ponds, natural planting and even habitat for the local newts and frogs. Follow the footpaths and enjoy a bracing walk!

Fleetwood Marsh Nature Park

Fleetwood Marsh Nature Park is a little harder to find, tucked away on the banks of the River Wyre. Access it via Jameson Road – which is just off Eros roundabout on the A585 main road into Fleetwood. Not only is it a home to wildlife, it’s also a very photogenic spot, so remember your camera.
