The forgotten about poor relation in parks . It is sad to see how this park has such a low priority compared to the other parks . I lived in Beech court opposite Calderstones park and near Sefton Park, Smithdown Road Wavertree for many years and still visit the manicured favoured parks . it's a unfair case of TWO TIER counciling . I now live near Newsham and it's shockingly blatant how Newsham Park is neglected and ignored compared to the calderstones and sefton parks.

I and all locals I speak to have nothing but sadness how this space has been put on a far less than adequate needed up keep. This park is used not only by locals but many many immigrants ,foreigners and local down and outs who have not learned the ways of using bins and now using the bushes for a toilet. Although with not a public toilet anywhere what can you expect. This is not a biggotry statement, just a truth. So as it is used by these types it needs more care, not less. The contractors in the flat bed vans who spend more time in their vans in-between emptying bins should be ashamed of themselves doing the absolute BARE minimum. Since the 2008 capital of culture overall the park has every year been getting less and less upkeep. We understand that cutbacks have been made but not when the cutbacks are not equal. Yes some railings have recently been slowly replaced and the many planted trees are now taking root and are now acting as a hide for unsavoury types. Many daytime bobbies on beat acting as visual deterrent is very prominent during the day when its not needed as much as after dark when a lot of young males who seemingly have nothing better to do than loiter after dark in unnatural places . I've said my piece and hope that this balance of care is shifted. I also invite anyone to attempt to disagree with any of...

Visited today as a little detour to going back to Sefton Park. Newsham Park looks lovely when you turn off the main road and pass the old derelict hospital. Parked up near the cafeteria and infront of the skatepark. Lovely big parkland that consisted of a skatepark, a big play area with swings and slides etc and certainly big enough for ball games. The first lake is a nice one, the water is clear and apart from the greenery in it you can see a lot in there. Some access is strangly blicked off but the you get a 'style' to climb over instead of a gate... Not good for the older generation to be honest. Walked on towards the 'big ' lake and it certainly is that. It has a fountain in it and a walkable bridge that splits it in 2. There is so much green algae in it and its a shame as this lake could be stunning. Walking to the far side of it you begin to realise you haven't found ANY benches that actually face the sun.... None of them! Who is responsible for the sun ray check??? When you do find a embankment to sit on, the geese decide you are fair game 😂. It's a nice, big, lovely park but not a big enough pull to visit again unfortunately. The big plus for this park is the assesibility from town, and a big play area. Perfect...
