Image: © Malc McDonald Taken: 8 Apr 2011
Springtime in Burgess Park, with cherry trees in bossom. The park occupies land which was formerly streets, housing and light industry flanking a canal. The path in this image follows the route of the canal, which was filled in in the 1980s. The footbridge survives as a reminder that the canal used to be here.
