Lake in Pymmes Park
Wikipedia says :- "The area known as Pymmes Park dates back to 1327 when William Pymme built a mansion here. Prior to 1578 the estate changed hands several times until Thomas Wilson a statesman bought the estate in 1579. In 1582 William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley, Lord High Treasurer, purchased the estate which remained in the family until 1801. The Ray family owned the estate from 1808 to 1899. The estate was then purchased by the local council to provide public open space following an increase in the local population. The park was opened to the public in 1906." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pymmes_Park
The Pymmes Brook Trail goes through the park.

Autumn in the Park
A beautiful day in Pymmes Park. Warm sunshine, fall colours, just a few people around, the occasional waft of cannabis on the breeze.
And relax.

Pymme's Brook goes under Silver Street
Classic urban watercourse engineering here along the lower section of the brook as an open stream. A short way below here it vanishes into culverts.
