The southern side of this public park is used from time to time as a medical emergency landing site for the nearby Sheffield Childrens Hospital. There is usually enough warning for Police to provide an escort to take patients and attending paramedics across the busy A57 main road (over the Pennines, to Manchester) into the hospital.
Plans have been announced to build a more suitable pad within the grounds of the hospital.
