Victoria skatepark

Victoria Skatepark is located within Victoria Park along Helmshore Road, Haslingden, Rossendale, BB4 6PP, United Kingdom. Tucked inside the lower portion of the historic park grounds, the facility sits just off Helmshore Road near the Haslingden countryside. The skatepark is free to access, open outdoors year-round, and accessible to the public during normal daylight park hours. Victoria skatepark is a concrete park made up of a miniramp connected to several basic obstacles in a back and forth setup.

The skatepark benefits from being situated inside Victoria Park, which offers a range of family and recreational facilities. Immediately adjacent are traditional open green lawns, walking paths, a children's play area, and the iconic Victorian clock tower and duck pond. Visitor parking is available via dedicated street parking along Helmshore Road and neighboring residential side streets, with pedestrian paths leading straight into the park. Local bus routes operate along Helmshore Road, connecting riders to nearby Haslingden town center and Rawtenstall.

Victoria Park itself dates back to the Victorian era, created as a public green space in the mid-19th century and designated as a protected Queen Elizabeth II Field. The addition of the skatepark was introduced as part of modern council investment into youth and leisure facilities, managed under the Rossendale Borough Council parks team. It continues to serve as an active outdoor gathering spot for local youth and young riders across Haslingden and the wider Rossendale valley.
