Chorlton Water Park

Circular walk

A circular dog friendly walk around Chorlton Water Park. Chorlton Water Park is a Local Nature Reserve comprising a lake surrounded by grasslands and woodlands. It stands on the site of Barlow Hall Farm. During the construction of the M60 motorway in the 1970s, gravel was excavated from the site. The gravel pit was subsequently flooded creating a lake that is central to the Water Park today. Downloadable map available here.
