This park is a green oasis in a rather run-down area of north Manchester. It was opened in the 1890's and went into serious decline in the 1980's. Recent regeneration has transformed it and it is now well used by the community it serves. The obelisk used to be situated in the centre of Manchester before being moved to here.
