Always great to have a green space in a city but... The planting is very clinical & offers very little for the bees. They plant single flowering plants in the beds, they flower, they dig them up & then plant another limited bloom flower. It seems labour intensive, hard on the soil & offers little for insects & bees to focus on. Wildflowers, lavender or just bushes with lots of blooms would enhance the park no end. Trees & shrubs are fine but the bedding flowers are old school & don't...

Harold's cross park has a nice cafe in it serving coffee,tea, sparkling drinks plenty of cakes and pastries available sitting area inside and outside.Playground full of children loads of swings and other to keep children busy in playground.Park is full of people when the sun is out and over the spring season it has plenty of flowers like hyacinths, daffodils,tulips, pansy's and more to enjoy.Park is always used to walk through and we use to use it as a walk from st Clare's primary school...

I am confident that any child or dog would award five stars but I am going to be a bit mean and award four stars [it is usually too busy for me].

I had the good fortune to live in Harold's Cross and this park was so close that if I fell out out off my bed I would be in the park. When I visited today the rain was heavy and constant and as a result it was almost empty and therefore very peaceful.

In reality, because Dublin has wonderful public parks, there is nothing unique about the park...
