Graves Park, Urban park in south Sheffield, United Kingdom
The 248-acre area includes open grasslands, dense woodlands, and three small lakes connected by streams through varied terrain and established pathways.
Alderman J. G. Graves established this parkland between 1926 and 1936 to protect ancient woodland from urban expansion and donated it to Sheffield.
The park maintains an educational animal farm that preserves rare British livestock breeds including Tamworth pigs, Highland cattle, and Jacob sheep.
Visitors access multiple sports facilities including tennis courts, bowling greens, a practice golf course, cricket grounds, and ten football fields.
Three interconnected lakes surrounded by mature trees provide natural habitats for local wildlife within this extensive urban green space.
