Visitors can expect to find a small park with historical information and displays on the history of the Castle, an interactive touch screen, children’s costumes and games, and a Roof Top viewing platform for expansive views of Rotherham and Sheffield.
Boston Park was opened on the 4 July 1876 to mark the centenary of the American Independence. It was Rotherham’s first public park.
Boston Park covers just over eight hectares and includes gardens, a cricket ground, a bowling and croquet lawn, an open area for gymnastics, and a large open area for informal recreation. It also has a side area of Canklow Woods, an ancient woodland area.
Visitors enjoy the great views over Rotherham and Sheffield, the extensive gardens, the large open area for informal recreation, and the quiet area for walks. It is also a great spot for walking dogs and soaking in the view.
Visitors have described Boston Park as a little unknown gem with brilliant views, a great place for walks, and a fascinating history. They appreciate the free admission, the picnic tables outside, and the informative talks about the history of the building and the area.
