Central Ossett parking by retail precinct.
Illingworth Street Car Park is a council-managed, tarmacked surface lot located at 6 Illingworth Street, Ossett (WF5 8AL), serving the local retail precinct and municipal offices. The facility accommodates approximately 75 vehicles, including five accessible bays near the pedestrian exit to Illingworth Street. Tariffs are £1.00 per hour, maximum stay 3 hours MondaySaturday 08:0018:00; Sundays are free. LED column lighting provides illumination from dusk until 22:00, and CCTV cameras monitor all circulation aisles. A pedestrian footpath leads to Ossett Market Place (0.1 miles), where local independent shops, cafés, and the weekly market are located. The asphalt surface was resurfaced in 2021 with fresh bay markings; drainage channels around the lot perimeter prevent pooling during heavy rain. Monthly patrols by Wakefield Council enforcement officers ensure compliance.
