Now part of Eastfield Park, The Bull Ring consists of 26 lime trees surrounding a statue of a man with a wild boar. The statue was a feature added by James Manfield and is no longer in the Park but the ring of trees is shown on 1886 Ordnance Survey maps and was described in the 1923 Weston Favell House Estate Sale Catalogue as being over 200 years old and possibly associated will bull baiting.
