We'd love it if you can get here without a car but, if you do need to drive, there is street parking on Senior Road and Waverley Road, just south of the park.

If travelling by bus, the 52/52a bus from/to Sheffield city centre stops approx. 5 min walk from the planting location - see route on Google maps.

There are no toilets in the park itself, but the golf clubhouse near the playground has toilets that the public can use. There are no accessible toilets on site. The nearest accessible toilet is at Morrisons (Catcliffe) approx. 8 mins drive away - see Google maps.
