Naul's Mill Park

Would you believe it? It's been tipping it down with rain the past couple of days and the boating pond is empty! The area of concrete is represented on the map by a blue blob normally indicating a body of water. The park was created in the early 20th century on the site of a water mill, demolished in 1889, and its feeder pond. Postcards from around 1909, when it was opened, show it with plantings of very young trees, which have matured to give it a very different appearance. The bandstand which stood at the end of the pond was removed in the 1960s.
