Arnot Hill Park

Arnot Hill Park dates back to 1792 where it originated as a villa landscape to compliment the house built by John Hawksley, a Nottingham manufacturer and mill owner. Many changes have taken place since that time to both the house and the grounds occupying Arnot Hill Park e.g. the house has been rebuilt on at least two occasions and the lake which dates back to the original mill pond has seen many changes to it since the Daybrook stream once flowed through and fed the lake.

Over the past 5 years a range of developments have been undertaken to refurbish and rejuvenate the park to the benefit of a wide range of users. This has included improvements to the lake itself, the provision of a new refreshment kiosk, the development of a skate park facility and a new play area, restoring the rose and sensory gardens, undertaking various planting schemes around the park, reinstating all the walls around the park, refurbishing the gatekeepers lodge and making improvements to the lighting as well as improving security through CCTV cameras.
