Accessibility

Pros:

  • "Easy access for wheelchairs. Push chairs. Families having picnics on the grass."
  • "The children's play area is suitable for kids under 12 and also includes a fun water fountain attraction which is free."
  • "Disable parking on the streets around the park is free for blue badges!"
  • "Great children's safe play area with play fountains fenced off."

Cons:

  • "It does not have enough parking space and those few spaces are for a limited time."
  • "Parking can be sometimes tricky but what place isn’t right?"
  • "Not much in the way of parking. Find one if you can on the one way road system."

Cleanliness

Pros:

  • "It's a very lovely clean place."
  • "A well-kept parkland in the very centre of Shrewsbury."
  • "The Quarry Park is always well maintained and the Dingle in the centre has an amazing layout of flower beds all year round."
  • "There are clean toilets in the park and café."

Cons:

  • "The reason I'm giving it four stars is because the toilets are disgusting. If I didn't have to go I really wouldn't use them."
  • "Only downside are the toilets which are filthy... Use them at your peril!"
  • "The only downside was disabled toilet was disgusting with dirty paper all over the floor -clearly need cleaning more frequently, however the gents was clean."
  • "And there was dog muck on some of the kids play equipment. Not sanitary at all."

Facilities

Pros:

  • "Also really good for public events and Saturday morning parkrun you can also fish in some parts of the river or hire kayaks."
  • "A large selection of young children's play equipment at the northern end near the swimming pool along with small ice cream and other food stalls."
  • "The Quarry also has a children's playground and Swimming Baths."
  • "There's a cafe and a coffee bar within the quarry, there's also a children's play area and public toilets for when you get caught short."

Cons:

  • "My only issue was that my toddler needed the toilet while playing on the park but public toilets were not clearly signposted."
  • "Great place to meet friends and take kids, but the fact that the public toilets are closed at the moment and only one disabled toilet by the park is open with a long queue is ridiculous."
  • "The only thing that spoils it for me is an absence of a low key café."
