The gates and fancy ironwork at this entrance to the park are fairly recent. The main entrance gates off Worcester Street are even more impressive and much much larger. The park itself is very popular, and at weekends can get very crowded. The park was given to the town in the 1920's by Ernest Stevens, who was a wealthy manufacturer of pots and pans. It is named in memory of his wife, Mary Stevens.
