Free parking for Chantry Park recreation & leisure
Chantry Park Car Park is a council-operated surface lot providing 120 marked bays including eight disabled spaces located near the main entrance to Chantry Park. Operating hours are sunrisesunset daily; no charges apply. The tarmac surface is grooved for drainage and inspected quarterly, with pothole repairs completed within 48 hours. LED bollard lighting ensures minimal illumination for early-morning and late-evening park users, and two CCTV cameras monitor entry, exit, and pedestrian paths. Pedestrian pathways lead directly to the parks sports fields (1 minute walk), playground (2 minutes), and to nearby bus stops (5 minutes). No EV charging stations are provided; the nearest public charger is at College Car Park, a 10 minute walk away. Weekly litter clearance and hedge trimming maintain a tidy park entrance.
