Whinney Hill Park reopens

9th November 2026 News

Whinney Hill Park has reopened following improvements made as part of the Brighouse Flood Alleviation Scheme.

The improvements have been designed to help reduce flood risk in Brighouse by creating additional flood water storage and supporting long-term flood resilience for the town. Alongside these benefits, the project has enhanced the local environment, creating a greener and more resilient space for people and wildlife.

Residents joined project partners at a reopening event on 6 November, where they had the opportunity to find out more about the scheme and explore the completed improvements.

We would like to thank local residents, businesses and park users for their patience and understanding while the works were carried out.

If you have visited the park since reopening, we’d love to see your photos. Share them with us on social media and help celebrate this improved community space.
