Free scenic parking within Locke Park grounds, close to playgrounds, fountains, and tennis courts.
Locke Park Car Park is a scenic, free public lot managed by Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, offering 80 sealed asphalt bays amid landscaped parkland near the historic Locke Park bandstand. There are three accessible bays adjacent to the main pedestrian gate leading to park lawns, a playground, and a Victorian-era fountain. The site is illuminated by heritage-style LED lampposts from dusk until 11 pm, and two CCTV cameras monitor entry and exit points to enhance visitor safety. There is no parking tariff; however, overnight parking is prohibited between 2 am and 5 am, enforced by regular patrols. Pedestrian pathways connect to Locke Parks formal gardens, tennis courts, and the junction of Lidget Street and Milan Road within a three-minute walk. Quarterly grounds maintenance includes sweepings, leaf clearance, and seasonal flower bed upkeep to maintain an inviting setting for park-goers.
