Hucknall, NG15 - Hazelgrove Area
The children's playground area of Titchfield Park. This park was created in 1914 when the Duke of Portland gave 11 acres of land to the town council in an area known as Caddow Park, to mark the 21st birthday of his son, The Marquis of Titchfield. A further 13 acres was added when the Hucknall Miners Welfare Committee decided to contribute to the development of Titchfield Park for the benefit of local miners. The extension work were held up by the outbreak of the First World War and it was not until 1922 that the Marquis finally performed the opening ceremony.
