Free countryside parking with accessible bay and eco-friendly lighting at Newmillerdam Country Park.
The 673 Barnsley Road Parking area in Newmillerdam is a roadside surface lot primarily serving visitors to Newmillerdam Country Park. The site provides 25 gravel-surfaced bays, including one accessible space nearest to the footpath leading into the park. Parking is free of charge, but visitors are encouraged to leave a voluntary donation in the collection box at the information board to support conservation efforts. Solar-powered LED bollard lighting illuminates pathways from dusk until 11 pm, while one CCTV camera mounted on a stone pillar covers the entrance. A wooden information kiosk displays park maps, local wildlife guidelines, and safety notices. Seasonal maintenance includes bi-annual gravel top-up, litter picks weekly, and boardwalk inspections to ensure safe access to lakeside trails and reed bed hides.
