Information on events and activities in Locke Park

Sadly, following an inspection of the tower, visits to Locke Park Tower have been suspended for the time being. The gates will stay closed until further notice. Disappointing we know, we are disappointed too.


Our summer programme of band concerts and events starts with our Easter Sunday opening of Locke Park Tower.
From 2pm till 4pm, now that it is summer.

Have you seen them yet?
Taylormade Signs & Banners have put three (yes three!) interpretation boards in Locke Park: for the Tower, Bandstand and Joseph Locke Statue.
Have you seen them? All three?
It’s great to see people having a look at the information with old images of these reminders of our heritage. And to hear how much they are appreciated.
Thanks to Barnsley Round Table and Kingstone Ward Alliance who, together with ourselves, Friends of Locke Park, funded them. And to Taylormade Signs for producing them.
There are more to come too!

Friends of Locke Park are opening the Tower from 1pm till 3pm each month, on the first Sunday, for visits during the winter months. Do come along!
