This western end of the park is open grassland; sports facilities are at the lower eastern end. Work on the park had started before World War 1 and it was finally opened on 8 August 1914. The choice of name reflects the London interests of the Earls of Dartmouth who gave the land, and the park was opened by the 6th Earl (information from www.morleyarchives.org.uk ).
