Other Facilities

A Natural Play Area

Westfield Park has a natural play area which is open during all daylight hours free of charge for the enjoyment of the local community and visitors. The facility is very well equipped and is suitable for all age groups up to early teens. Parents are required to supervise young children at all times.

Free Car Parking

A free car park which can accommodate 60 vehicles at any one time is available at Westfield Park. Due to Highways Agency restrictions no coaches or buses are allowed on the car park as there is not sufficient space for such vehicles to turn safely without reversing. Consequently parties arriving by this method of transport are required to be dropped off and picked up on North End Longhoughton and to make the remainder of the journey on foot.

Kitchen

There is a well equippped kitchen at Westfield Park suitable for the preparation of both hot and cold food & drinks and is available to all community building hirers for no extra charge. Sometimes multiple bookings will necessitate sharing of the facility on an informal basis unless specifically reserved for a large event e.g. a birthday party for which the hire charge will already have been adjusted. Longhoughton Rangers will have priority (but not exclusive) access on match days to serve supporters with refreshments.

Changing Rooms

The changing rooms of which there are four FA Standard 16 person rooms plus two single Officials rooms are intended to support football activity on either STP or Grass Pitches and will consequently be reserved for this priority use especially on match days. The rooms are equipped with benches, toilets, hand basins and communal showers (excepting Officials which have personal facilities) and are lockable by each user if required. There may be occasions however when the changing facilities are not in priority use and can be employed for other activities e.g. drama groups or entertainers using the stage in the Function Room or temporary storage.
