Firth Park, Victorian urban park in Sheffield, England

The park spans 37.6 acres across two rectangular sections divided by Firth Park Road, featuring woodland paths, grassland areas, and sports facilities.

Mark Firth, a Sheffield steel industrialist, donated the park land in 1875, which Prince Albert Edward and Princess Alexander inaugurated with a ceremony attended by 15,000 children.

The Grade II listed Clock Tower pavilion, originally housing the park keeper's residence and refreshment rooms, now functions as a community center after restoration.

Henry's Café in the First Start building operates Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm and Saturday from 10am to 2pm, offering refreshments and disabled facilities.

The eastern section contains Hinde Common Wood, an ancient woodland first documented in 1637, which underwent restoration to promote native tree growth.
