Twerton and Whiteway Parks

In Twerton and Whiteway we are blessed with a number of green open spaces which are vital for our community. These spaces are open for the public to enjoy, here is some information about each park: 

Bath and North East Somerset Council maintained parks

Pennyquick Park

This is situated on Newton Road, it is a large green space which benefits from an enclosed playground area which was replaced in 2022-2023, a single hoop Basketball area, BMX bike humps and 2 football goal posts.  It also has 4 pieces of outdoor gym equipment, 2 pieces of fully accessible play equipment and 2 picnic benches which were all installed following a successful CIL bid from Councillors Sarah Moore and Tim Ball during 2024-2025.

This park is used for a number of events throughout the year, including hosting a fairground and the Twerton Flower Show.

Innox Park

This is situated between Freeview Road and The Brow and also borders Bath City Farm. This is a large green hillside space which has an enclosed toddler and child playground area which was replaced in 2021-2022, a single hoop Basketball area, seating and a wildflower area.

This park has some lovely views across bath from the seating at the top of the park.

Curo maintained parks

Whiteway Green

This is a large green open space, which is situated between Rosewarn Close and Haycombe Drive. It has a skate ramp and goal posts with nets, it also has a Multi Use Games area with Basketball hoops and football goals which was installed following a successful combined CIL bid by Councillors Sarah Moore, Councillor Tim Ball and Curo. It also has a toddler and child playground area, which had new play equipment and a new surface installed in 2024, again following a successful CIL bid by Councillors Sarah Moore, Councillor Tim Ball and Curo. We are working closely with Curo to get this play area fenced in to make it a safer space for children to play.

Whiteway Community Association have also worked extremely hard making improvements in this park, including getting the nets for the football goals, seating and creating the memorial garden.

Woody Park

This is a small enclosed playground area in Redland Park which has swings, a climbing frame and a slide.

As both these parks are the responsibility of Curo Housing Association, any up keep and maintenance is their responsibility, however, Councillors Sarah Moore and Tim Ball do work closely with Curo to get improvements implemented in these parks.

If you have any concerns or improvements in any of our parks, please do get in touch.

Rosewarn Park

We are pleased to confirm that Sarah Moore and Councillor Tim Ball are working closely with members of Whiteway Residents Association and Curo to find funding to enable the very neglected Rosewarn Park to have a makeover.



The park area has been left untouched for so long there is nothing left for children to use safely, the fencing is non existent and the whole area is in need of a big overhaul.

We will keep you updated on progress with this project but are keen to get moving with this as soon as we can, to give the children in the area a better, safer open space to play.

innox Park improvement its time to have your say.

Innox Park Improvement Project – Have Your Say!

Bath and North East Somerset Council is asking how Innox Park can be improved for people and wildlife.

A consultation survey has been launched to understand how the park is used, what people like and dislike about it and to ask what improvements should be made.  The Council hopes that this will be the start of a long term programme of improvements for the park and to kick start the process it has set aside £79,000 of Section 106 developer contributions to spend on improvements on the ground.

Anyone with an interest in the park is invited to take part in the consultation in one of the following ways:

1)       Complete the online survey consultation at www.bathnes.gov.uk/innoxpark
2)       Come along to Innox Park between 1.30pm and 3.30pm on Saturday 8th September 2018 when members of the Council will be on hand to hear your views. Copies of the consultation survey will be available on the day
3)       Email your suggestions on how the park could be improved to parks@bathnes.gov.uk

Completed surveys must be returned by 5pm on Sunday 30th September 2018 when the initial community consultation will close.

For further information please contact the Council’s Parks Team on parks@bathnes.gov.uk

You can also let myself or Sarah know.

Disappointment for Redland Park Residents

Residents of Redland Park will be disappointed to hear that Bath & North East Somerset Council Highways department have decided not to create an extra parking area on the former play area in the middle of Redland Park.

Councillor Tim Ball has spoken to several residents who agree that the the second placed scheme the wild flowers surrounded by a fence should now be put in place.

We have notified the parks department asking them to carry out this work.
