Parking was in the bid but for users of the Coaching House. PArt of the problem with parking is that people want to park 12" from the park gates then go and walk around the park. The park has been here well before cars were common. Parking is always going to be a problem for Rhyddings Park as it is for a lot of Oswaldtwistle.
When we held our last event we tried to encourage local people to walk to the park and leave theirs cars at home.

Of course they are but funding bids often refer to the 1km catchment area so it is bid talk really. It also points out the high number very local to the park.

I did not forget it but for some reason it is not mentioned on the HBC website where I took my quote from. I wondered if it belonged to LCC like the area off Fielding Lane.
One side is mainly bookable football pitches and the other is a nice large grassed area. Neither side can really be classed as a true formal park.

I don't understand the question.
