Harleston’s Recreation Ground provides plenty of space for relaxation and exercise.
The children’s play equipment is split into four main areas. The toddler area has been recently refurbished with a variety of new equipment. The main play area provides activity for children of all ages with a range of different equipment to satisfy the adventurous. Alongside the play area, there’s a fantastic BMX track for all those budding Olympians and a Zip wire to conquer all fears!
Outdoor gym For the adults there’s a free to use outdoor gym, for those that prefer to exercise outside.
Dogs are welcome on the Rec, but please keep them on a lead! Dogs are required to be kept on a lead within the Recreation Ground. But there’s a fenced off area next to the tennis courts, specifically allocated for dogs to run free off their leads.
Family Inclusive Sports Area / Multi Use Games Area

The Recreation Ground also includes the Family Inclusive Sports Area (FISA), also known as a Multi Use Game Area (MUGA) built by Redenhall with Harleston Town Council. It is a versatile outdoor space designed for a range of sports and activities. Whether you’re into football, basketball, netball, or tennis, this facility provides an accessible and well-maintained environment for players of all ages and abilities. Open to the community, the MUGA is a great spot to stay active, socialize, and enjoy recreational time in a safe and inclusive setting.
The Recreation Ground is the perfect place to picnic with many tables and benches located throughout the grounds.
