Roundhay Park, Urban park and Grade II listed garden in Leeds, England
The 700-acre grounds include woodland areas, formal gardens, two lakes, walking paths, and multiple recreational spaces for outdoor activities.
The park originated from an 11th-century hunting ground granted to Ilbert de Lacy by William the Conqueror before opening to the public in 1872.
The park's Arena regularly hosts major concerts, sporting events, and community gatherings that bring together thousands of Leeds residents throughout the year.
Five free parking areas serve visitors across the park, with disabled spaces available near Mansion Lane and Tropical World entrances.
Waterloo Lake, spanning 33 acres, was constructed by soldiers returning from the Napoleonic Wars using former quarry and mining sites.
