Tilsley Green - Trees for Life

Sheffield is a city famed for its industry. As industry has declined, it has left behind a legacy of green spaces and parks originally built for the well-being of workers. These parks help to strengthen Sheffield's standing as one of the greenest cities in Europe.

Aiding the City's green credentials are the Tinsley Forum who have received two awards in recent years to enhance the park with new tree planting as well as the creation of a picnic area for people to sit and enjoy the park.

Strategic management leaves areas between the trees unmown to encourage a wide variety of flowering plant life, which attracts insects and other invertabrates, giving them a vital living space.

A large play area and sports pitches complete this Green Flag Award-winning site.
