Boating Lake at Platt Fields Park
The Platt Fields estate was purchased by Manchester Corporation for public use in 1907 following a local campaign. The park was landscaped and a lake created by unemployed labour during the hard winter of 1908-1909. Platt Fields Park, was formally opened on 7 May 1910 by the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Sir Charles Behrens. The Main Lake was provided with a large boat house and wood covered slipway. It housed not only a fleet of large, clinker built rowing boats and skiffs but also a fine motor launch, the Archie Littlemore, which gave rides during the summer months.
A full list of the park's facilities and further information can be found on the website of the Friends of Platt Fields: http://www.plattfields.org/stuff.htm
