About

Netham Park (historically Netham Recreation Ground) is a public urban park in Bristol, England. Located between the neighbourhoods of Redfield and Barton Hill, it overlooks the Feeder Canal and the River Avon. The park occupies land formerly used by the Netham Chemical Works, and was converted into public recreation space in the mid-20th century as part of the wider redevelopment of the Barton Hill area. Netham Park has served as a case study in academic research regarding urban green space, specifically how ethnicity, religion, and perceived safety influence access and usage patterns in inner-city parks.
