Access restricted to Beeley Woods. Your help is needed!


Access restricted to Beeley Woods. Your help is needed!
The Issue
Since January 2026 access from Middlewood Road North to Beeley Woods has been restricted.
This has been due to concerns about the safety of using the footpaths and Sheffield City Council have now determined that substantial work needs to be carried out to repair the retaining wall along the steps into the woods. This work will be costly and until done, pedestrians will not be able to enjoy access to the woods.
We need your help!
Did you used to walk your dog on those paths? Did you used to go running along the river? Are you inconvenienced by the closure of the paths?
If so please sign our petition.
By gathering your support we can communicate to the Council the impact the closure is having on us all.
