Rock Park Heritage Centre

About the venue

The Rock Park is a prominent park and woodland community space in Llandrindod Wells which was established in the Spa town’s Victorian heyday.

Originally designed as a ‘natural’ open space to compliment the provision of the naturally occurring spring waters, the park was popular and well used for many years. However, the park fell into gradual decline during the twentieth century following the two world wars and a decline in the popularity of ‘taking the waters’. Powys County Council, the Friends of Rock Park and volunteers have worked hard over the last few years to give the park a new lease of life. One of the tasks carried out has been to restore some of the footpaths. This included one potentially dangerous footpath that has been completely upgraded to make it suitable for all users, including those with mobility problems.
