Introduction to Highfield Country Park
Highfield Country Park is a 70-acre (280,000 m2) area of open land, situated on the east side of Levenshulme, Manchester, that stretches to the east of Broom Avenue across to the rear of Reddish Golf Course and to the junction of Longford Road, Reddish and Nelstrop Road, Levenshulme.
Much of Highfield Country Park is not manicured, nature has some freedom to take it’s own course. Although it is does not seem too large, if you take one of the many small paths you may suddenly find yourself wondering whether you are still in Manchester… in much of it, you can only see the trees and long grass. The roads and buildings are often hidden from view.
Events
Community-Driven
Many dedicated volunteers from the local community help The Friends of Highfield Country Park to develop the habitats on the nature reserve. We believe that by caring for our green spaces we care for each other, and help to leave a better world for the next generation.
We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds and ethnicities. The only thing you need to be to volunteer is passionate, so please get in touch if you’d like to get involved.
A Natural Green Space
The Friends of Highfield Country Park are committed to raising biodiversity of the park while keeping the space wild. You won’t find manicured hedges and trimmed lawns here, just a little slice of English wildlife as it’s meant to be enjoyed.
Bursting with History
Highfield Country park has a rich and varied history as farmland, industrial development and residential area. We’re proud of our history and we welcome any new insights from locals & experts alike.
