Park maze was 'primarily used as public toilet'
The Chronicle
|November 26, 2025
A MAZE in a Newcastle city centre park has been removed - after it became a "public toilet".
Newcastle City Council has cut down the hedgerow maze in Leazes Park due to complaints that it was a magnet for antisocial behaviour.
Local authority bosses said that the attraction had not resembled a maze for years and had become an eyesore, acting as a magnet for drug use and antisocial behaviour.
A report warned that the feature, designed and planted by schoolchildren as part of Leazes Park’s 2004 restoration, was “primarily being used as a public toilet.”
