Stamford Park

Trafford Borough Council manages Stamford Park, a 16-acre public park. It is located on the border of Altrincham & Hale and is one of the most popular parks in Trafford. John Shaw designed it and opened it in 1880 on land donated to him by the 7th Earl Stamford.

Stamford Park Sports Facilities

Walking, running, and cycling
 There is a 400-meter circuit path  around the Oval field which is used by walkers, dog walkers and runners and this can be extended of course  to include the football pitch..

The Oval

The Oval grass field is used for many activities .Cricket is still being played during the summer months but it is also used by families for picnics and plenty of other games such as frisbee and kite flying, Tai Chi, Sudoku, or Tai Chi.
Football

The Queens Road end of Queens Road has a 9-a-side pitch, this is very popular year round so be sure to book in advance to avoid disappointment.  The male toilets have changing facilities.

Tennis

Near Charter Road are three recently resurfaced asphalt courts. The courts are free to use all year, and nets are always in place. These courts are large and include orange and red markings. These are very popular and very well used. Especially during the Summer holidays and at weekends 

Lawn bowls 

Hale Moss Bowling Club is located on the greens next to Stamford Park Road. Six teams currently exist, including ladies, men, and veterans. They welcome new members and range in age from 16 to 90. If you fancy having a go at this wonderful sport come along and you will be very welcome. 

Friends of Stamford Park

Stamford Park’s support group was established in 2005 and revived in 2013. The members are people who live in the area and have an interest or use the park.

FOSP, an independent non-profit organization, works with Trafford Borough council to improve and maintain Stamford Park. It has the following aims: restoring heritage features, increasing environmental value and community involvement; enhancing facilities; and promoting sport in a safe, accessible environment. These aims are being furthered by links with other local groups or organisations that have an interest.

FoSP doesn’t own or manage Stamford Park, that is one of the Altrincham council’s duties.. Instead they act as  voice for park users, and they aim to include as many local people as possible . They are working with the council and other stakeholders to create management and improvement plans that will restore Stamford Park back to its former glory and ensure it has the appropriate facilities for the 21st Century.
