Victoria Park

Bramley is a district in west Leeds. The area expanded significantly during the industrial boom. Architecture is heavily influenced by 19th century design. Many of the homes originated from the social housing builds in the 20th century.

Victoria Park and Victoria Park Garden are situated between Victoria Park Avenue, Outgang Lane and Raynville Avenue.

Walking

The circular path around the path makes for a nice calm walk. It is a popular spot for people walking their dogs and letting them off the leash.

Picnics

The open green space is a sun trap on good weather days. This makes for bringing a picnic along with you to enjoy in the sunshine. For food and drink supplies there are four mini-supermarkets and off-licenses in the surrounding area.

Games

The rock formations at the front of the park make for some great circle games with friends – like the classic one duck, duck, goose. For those that like a run around, the wide green space is perfect for ball games like football, cricket and rounders.

The nearest public toilet is a 10-minute walk away at the Old Unicorn JD Wetherspoon.

There are rubbish bins in and around Victoria Park.

A 10-minute walk away over the River Aire is the Kirkstall Bridge Inn.

A pub with one of the best beer gardens in Leeds; and a pretty good pub quiz. It’s well worth a wander to enjoy a drink and some food outside (or sit in the snug indoors if it’s raining).

Victoria Park has no parking. The best option is to park on the residential road of Raynville Avenue, LS13 2RS (Google Map Directions)

Victoria Park Gardens has a circular tarmac path that is suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs.

Victoria Park itself is a maintained field. It will be usable with caution when dry – however take care after rain as it tends to get muddy.
