About Arrowsmith Park
Off-Leash Dog Area at Arrowsmith Park
Arrowsmith Park has an unleashed dog area, its one dedicated facility. The off-leash area is unfenced, so there is no enclosed space for dogs to run. Busy roads and a railway line run beside it, which means owners should keep dogs close to them at all times. There are no dog water stations, and the park's water taps are hard to find.
Grounds and Terrain at Arrowsmith Park
Arrowsmith Park covers a decent-sized area with trees spread across it, which give visitors some shade. One end of the park is steeply sloped, and the slope makes it hard to bring a pram or a wheelchair through that section. Arrowsmith Park has no toilet, barbecue, picnic table, playground or water refill station, and litter and dumped trolleys are present on the grounds.
