Nine community parks have been developed over the past few years in Burton and Uttoxeter. The parks have been designed in conjunction with local people for family recreation. Most sites have play areas for toddlers and older children, youth facilities (e.g. ball court/skate ramps/shelter), football pitch or kick around area. Community parks also have surfaced paths and landscaped areas. We encourage local people living near each park to join a ‘friends of’ group, which help to manage and develop the park.

The parks which have made into community parks are:

Anglesey Community Park (off Cambridge Street), Burton

Canterbury Road Community Park, Winshill

Carver Road Community Park, Burton

Eton Community Park, Burton

Hazelwalls Community Park, Uttoxeter

Heath Road Community Park, Stapenhill

Pennycroft Community Park, Uttoxeter

Uppermills Community Park (off Blackpool Street), Burton

Wheatley Lane Community Park, Winshill
