Things to do
At Pudsey Park you can find a range of free attractions whatever the weather and it is a safe place to walk, play, skateboard or visit the new West Leeds Country Park visitor centre.
The West Leeds Country Park visitor centre is located in Pudsey Park and is housed in the old aviary building close to the Church Lane entrance to the park.
The new visitor centre is dedicated to the wildlife of west Leeds, containing freshwater fish, native mammals and birds, wildlife displays including a rabbit warren and a stone-built barn housing brown rats. The centre incorporates an interactive woodland area and a Nectar Corner. There is also a large education room within the centre. This room is an activity / community area in which activities will be run throughout the year, including bird box building, arts and craft sessions, “meet the wildlife” sessions etc.
You can relax with a leisurely stroll around the tree lined parkland and enjoy the flowers and gardens or spend a lazy Sunday listening to one of the local brass bands playing in the bandstand or identify the top ten plants in our tropical greenhouse. If you are looking for something more active, you can try a game of bowls and younger visitors can enjoy our extensive children’s playground and skateboard park.
