Parks and Greenspace

Parks and Greenspace

Nestled between the West Pennine Moors and Rivington Pike, Bolton is the gateway to serene natural landscapes; and being made up of over 50% greenspace, you are never far from beautiful green spaces.  

 

From the panoramic views of Horrocks Fold overlooking Manchester and the quaint streets of Barrow Bridge, to the 22 acre Victorian Queens Park near the town centre, you are never far from a green space in Bolton.
