Grantham Road Park

Honestly, the skatepark here is the real draw — it’s proper professional quality, not some half-hearted council afterthought, and you’ll always find scooter kids and skaters making good use of it. The whole place is kept in decent nick too, which you don’t always take for granted around Nottingham. Younger ones are catered for as well, so it’s not just for the older kids showing off their tricks. There’s also an outdoor gym if you fancy getting a workout in while the kids do their thing — makes it genuinely useful for the whole family rather than just one age group.
