Orchard Head Lane Car Park is a free, tarmacked facility managed by Wakefield Council, located on Orchard Head Lane, Pontefract (WF8 2UW), serving local residential streets and a nearby recreation ground. The lot holds approximately 60 vehicles, including four accessible bays near the pedestrian exit onto Orchard Head Lane. There is no pay-and-display; signage requests a four-hour maximum stay MondaySaturday 08:0018:00 to discourage commuter parking; Sundays and bank holidays are unrestricted. LED bollard lighting provides illumination from dusk until midnight, and a single CCTV camera monitors the entrance lane. A footpath leads directly to Strawberry Fields recreation ground (0.1 miles), featuring playgrounds and sports pitches. The asphalt surface was resurfaced in 2021 with fresh bay markings and speed bumps; drainage channels around the perimeter prevent pooling. Regular patrols by Wakefield Council wardens ensure compliance.
