Wicksteed Park is a Grade II English Heritage listed Park situated in the heart of rural Northamptonshire. Originally founded by Charles Wicksteed, Wicksteed Park is owned and operated by the Wicksteed Charitable Trust (Charity Number 1142103).
Our Vision is: “ to celebrate the unique contribution of Charles Wicksteed and lead the way in adventurous, educational and imaginative play in an outstanding heritage parkland setting thereby making future generations healthier and happier for another 100 years.”
Our Mission:
"We will care for this much loved park, guided by the needs of its distinctive heritage and will continue the founder's ethos of providing opportunities for wide-ranging healthy, adventurous recreation and fun in a freely accessible rich natural environment which demonstrates Charles Wicksteed's love of nature and animals. We will work with partners in the community to provide new opportunities for learning , volunteering and activities in the park which will contribute to its long-term sustainable conservation and aid understanding of the site's special qualities"
The park is said to be one of the oldest amusement parks in the United Kingdom. Set in over 147 acres of beautiful parkland, there is plenty of opportunity to journey on a path of exploration around our newly restored Lake and discover your inner child with adventurous and imaginative play in natural surroundings.
