Parking at the Former Lancaster Green Ayre Railway Station Site
The former Lancaster Green Ayre railway station site is now a public park, with nothing remaining of the station itself (wikipedia.org). The location is at 28 Parliament Street, Bulk, Lancaster, LA1 1DQ, so drivers should treat the address as a historic railway location rather than a current station car park.
A separate account describes the former site as laid out to provide parking for visitors and staff at the hospital (rogerfarnworth.com). That description does not establish a railway-operated car park, published capacity, tariff or opening hours for station passengers, so the practical parking choice is to use a nearby bookable space or a council car park rather than expect facilities at the old station.
Commuter Parking for Green Ayre Journeys
The location is not a current passenger railway station, so there are no station season tickets, commuter permits or pre-booking products associated with Green Ayre in the published station information. The site is identified as a public park rather than a working rail station (wikipedia.org).
For a full working day, the nearby Parksy listings include daily and monthly options, which can be more suitable than paying an hourly rate. A monthly space is listed at £93 a month, while daily spaces are listed at £4 a day, £5.10 a day and £1.95 a day. These options suit regular commuters who want a planned parking arrangement close to the historic station site.

The spaces are close enough to serve trips to the former site and surrounding Lancaster centre.
Street Parking Around 28 Parliament Street

The published council information gives drivers a clear paid-parking alternative for short visits, longer daytime stays and up-to-24-hour parking near the centre. The former station land is described as a public park, so it should not be assumed to operate as an unrestricted street-parking area (wikipedia.org).
Lancaster Railway Station and Onward Connections
Lancaster railway station is the nearest current railway station, 0.5 mi from the former Green Ayre location and an 11-minute walk.

Avanti West Coast publishes parking information for Lancaster railway station, including parking spaces, locations and directions (avantiwestcoast.co.uk).
