Greenhead Park, Victorian urban park in Huddersfield, England.

This 30-acre park features ornamental gardens, tree-lined avenues, tennis courts, a skate park, and a paddling pool surrounded by landscaped walking paths.

The development of Greenhead Park began in 1870 when Alderman Thomas Denham leased 15 acres of land, leading to its official opening in 1884.

The park stands as a Grade II listed property, recognized by English Heritage for its Victorian design and serves as an educational resource for local students.

Visitors can access tennis courts, children's play areas, and a café while enjoying paved paths suitable for walking and cycling throughout the year.

A £5 million restoration project in 2012 reinstated one of the original lakes and restored historical buildings while maintaining the park's Victorian character.
