This little park in High Heaton is adjacent to Jesmond Dene, and stands beside Freeman Road. It takes its name from Patrick Freeman, known as Paddy, who farmed here in 1795. The family farmed here for many years in the 18th and 19th centuries. Although now deep within the suburbs of Newcastle, this was countryside in those days.
