Milton Park is the town's main park, it has an ornamental sunken garden, a skatepark, a small football pitch and a children's play area. It also plays host to a number of public occasions such as a music festival and carnival.

The park was originally the grounds and gardens of Milton House. In 1965 Alsager Urban District Council took over the park and the house reverted to public ownership. Until this time the gardens were bordered by an eight foot high wall which stretched from the Top Lodge to the Bottom Lodge, running along Crewe Road.
