    Hiking

    Hirst Park, which opened in 1915, was developed by the former Ashington Urban District Council to provide a green space in the rapidly expanding coal mining neighbourhood.

    The park's football pitches are where players Jackie Milburn, and Jack and Bobby Charlton began their careers. A statue of Jack Charlton, and information boards celebrating some of Ashington's most famous players can be found in the centre of the park.

    The park also boasts a play park, splash park, a woodland area, gardens, bowling greens, and tennis courts.
