About the site
A beautiful green space
Situated at Windsor Fields, off Windsor Road and opposite Denton West End Library. There is a beautiful green space that in recent years has been saved by the local community of Dane Bank from a large housing development. The Green Space is now named - Dane Bank Green Space and we sub-lease from the charity.
​
It is now our primary site for all of our classes and offerings.
Dane Bank Green Space Charity
The site is leased by Dane Bank Green Space Charity, which has received a sum of funding from the National Lottery to enable the site to be developed. Ourselves, and other groups sublease areas of the land. The charity is very passionate about keeping the space green and suitable for activities that the community can be part of, and we are proud to support this!
Our set up
We have built a number of structures and developed play areas and spaces on the site, including crawling tunnels, slides, mud kitchens, play houses and a basecamp area.
We are OFSTED registered here and run holiday clubs and Nursery here.
The space is thriving with wildlife and we are passionate about getting local children and other groups down to site to access this fantastic space & provision.
Several saplings and semi-mature trees have been planted in recent years to build up the area, many in memory of beloved lost loved ones. There are some ponds at the site, one with some resident ducks & geese, and an accessible walking path, the area is very important to and well-supported by the local community. Close by with the same access track are Denton West End Cricket Club & Denton West End Football Club, as well as Denton West Stables.
