🌿 Discover the story of Waters’ Edge!

Take a trip down to Waters’ Edge and step back in time to the 1800s, discovering the fascinating history of the site and its remarkable transformation from contaminated industrial land into the Country Park we know and enjoy today.

Along the way, you can uncover more about the area’s rich industrial heritage, including neighbouring sites such as The Ropewalk and The Tile Yard, as well as learning more about one of the region’s most recognisable landmarks – the iconic Humber Bridge.

Looking for something a little different?
We pride ourselves on supporting local businesses so feel free to take some time to browse our unique gift shop. Here you’ll discover a wonderful selection of handcrafted gifts and beautiful creations, expertly made by our talented local artisan crafters. Don’t forget to visit our Art Gallery, home to a fabulous collection of artwork and photography from talented artists and photographers.🎨

Fancy a bite to eat?
After exploring, sit back and relax in our dog friendly Humber Hideaway Café, where you can enjoy freshly prepared homemade hot and cold food, delicious cakes and a selection of refreshments.

Whether you’re interested in local history, exploring the Country Park, looking for a special gift or simply fancy a coffee and a slice of cake, there’s plenty to enjoy at Waters’ Edge. We look forward to welcoming you!

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!

Please be advised that the playground which is situated in the corner of the main carpark just off Maltkiln Road has now been reopened to members of the public. The playground had to be closed on the 23rd of August due to an active wasps nest. This has been dealt with safely and effectively and we would like to thank you all for your patience and understanding.
