Kettlebridge Doorstep Green is a designated local park/green space and is maintained by Sheffield City Council. It is located off Kettlebridge Road/Myton Road.
In 2002, local residents formed the Kettlebridge Action Group to improve their area, focusing on green spaces, reducing fly-tipping, and preventing vandalism. A consultation identified a site on Myton Road, often used by children, as needing improvement due to safety concerns and poor conditions. With input from the community and the East End Quality of Life Initiative, Weddle Landscape Design created a plan to make the area safer and more accessible.
Sheffield City Council and the Kettlebridge Action Group share responsibility for maintaining the site, with the Council handling basic upkeep and the Action Group receiving training for planting and litter picks. The community played a significant role in transforming the site, with local children and the Action Group collaborating on artwork, including entrance archways, a pebble mosaic, and murals, working alongside community artists.
