Friends of Ruskin Park

Walkley's community park in Sheffield

 

Where is the Park?

When I mention Ruskin Park to people from outside of Walkley (and even some who live in Walkley) no one seems to know where it is located.

I've put some links in below. Ruskin Park is in the centre of this map, bordered by Burgoyne Road and Daniel Hill Street

The History of the Park

We are trying to locate photographs of the area before it was cleared to form the park in the 1970s

If anyone can contribute any photographs (which will be returned), please contact Veronica Hardstaff or e-mail us at info@ruskinpark.org.uk
