About Brickpit Park

Off-Leash Dog Park at Brickpit Park

Brickpit Park has a fully fenced off-leash dog park that opened to the public on 8 July 2025. Double-gated entrances, concrete pathways, waste bins, dog waste bags and water stations for dogs are all inside the enclosure, which is landscaped with new trees, shrubs and lawn. Dogs must stay leashed until they are inside the fence and be leashed again before leaving, and they may not run off-leash anywhere else in the park. Owners must keep their dogs in sight and under voice control, pick up waste, and stop them rushing at or harassing other dogs and people.
