Hillsborough Park surrounds an eighteenth-century hall and holds a boating lake, sports pitches, a skate park and a beautifully restored walled garden run largely by volunteers.

It hosts Tramlines each July, and the tram stops at the gate, making it the easiest of the big outer parks to reach from the centre.

Highlights

  • Restored walled garden
  • Boating lake
  • Home of the Tramlines festival
