Abbey Park, Leicester
This now disused paddling pool was built in 1930 and was a source of much enjoyment for many local people according to past newspaper accounts. Almost constant traffic noise from the A6 (a.k.a. St Margaret's Way), beyond the boundary wall, is now a prominent feature of this part of the park.
