Locke Park Tower NOT open Sunday 6 July due to rain

Due to the wet weather we have decided not to open the tower today!
Band concert next Sunday and tower open again on first Sunday of August.
We are next opening Locke Park Tower on Sunday 6th July from 2pm until 4pm*. Hopefully the weather will be kind and give us good views. And we need enough volunteers! If you would like to help, do get in touch.
You can walk to Locke Park Tower from the car park (S70 6NE) or the café. Follow the paths to the highest point in the park to get to the tower. [The What 3 Words location for the Car Park is remit.silent.hills and for the Café is roses.melon.saving]
Donations are appreciated to help improving the park especially by providing plants and bringing bands to the bandstands.
*We try to open the tower each first Sunday of the month. It depends on both the weather and whether we have enough volunteers. Check online using our Facebook page.
