Having a few hours to kill this morning whilst up in Longton, as it was a nice day, I thought I would have a wander around Longton Park.
What a surprise.
It must be 10-15 years since I last walked through the park and to be frank then it was a depressing, run down, semi-derelict dump with the only other people in there seemingly winos or junkies.
What a change.
It was clean, neat and tidy. The grass was cut, the bushes and shrubs were well tended. There were people fishing, kids feeding the ducks and the playground was packed.
Parts of Longton are pretty dowdy and depressing. It is great to see that Longton Park is no longer one of those and that it is now a very pleasant place to spend an hour or two.

I grew up living about a hundred yards from the top gates of Longton Park, loved the place , hours upon hours of happy memories playing in there as a kid , I haven't been there in over 30 years but I'm glad to hear it hasn't gone the way of so many parks these days

I hadn't been there since about 1990 but took my little 'un about a month ago. I thought it was brilliant. Red hot day, park was packed, ice cream van, tennis, football.
The only downside was the duck shit I got on my trainers and the lads scooter wheels; and the MENTAL geese, but that was only by the lake.
Great day out really, for free!

the park is a credit to longton and the surrounding area, just a shame longton town is looking worse by the day its very rare i venture into the park these days, but a mate of mine goes running there most days and he says how well it is maintained, its probably the nicest park in the city to be fair. i was told a story once about a young lad getting his cock cut off by a paedophile in the toilets there years ago, does anybody know if this is actually true?
