Eddie's Bench

This bench near the tennis courts at Fletcher Moss Park is in memory of Eddie Thornber. He was a 17 year old boy from Didsbury and a talented lacrosse player who was due to go to play in America. Tragically he got into some trouble in Cornwall in 2011 and ended up taking his own life. http://www.toms-travels.net/?p=25171
