Roman Boathouse and Birkenhead Park Lake
Birkenhead Park was designed by Joseph Paxton who also designed the Crystal Palace for the Great Exhibition of 1851 and Princes Park, Liverpool. It opened on 5 April 1847 and is regarded as the first public park in the world and it is widely accepted that, after visiting the park in 1850 during a tour of Europe, American landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted incorporated many of the features he observed into his design for New York's Central Park.
