The park was originally the land belonging to the Tatton family who were established at Wythenshawe Hall. In 1926 the hall and parkland was bought by Lord and Lady Simon and given to Manchester City Council to be kept forever as an open space for the people of Manchester https://secure.manchester.gov.uk/info/200073/parks_playgrounds_and_open_spaces/2242/wythenshawe_park/5
