Wyndham Park, Grantham, Lincs.
Predominantly for the use of pedestrians, the access into Wyndham Park here, from Slate Mill Place, is via the "White Bridge" entrance. The bridge was constructed in 1924 as a belated memorial to soldiers who died during WWI. The River Witham flows beneath it. The original plot of land was given - for recreational purposes - by Percy Chandos Farquhar de Paravacini in 1912 but the size of the re-designated "park" and its facilities have increased since then.

Wyndham Park, Grantham, Lincs.
A view from "White Bridge", a footbridge beneath which the River Witham flows. Access to the park can be gained from Slate Mill Place via the "White Bridge" entrance. On the other side of the riverside path is the entrance and administrative hub of what was originally an open-air swimming pool. This closed in 1971 and was partially filled in for the use of roller-skaters. Much later on it was used by the Grantham & District Model Boat Club for a period of ten or years or more. At present however, it is in a state of disrepair.

Newton's Apple
Sculpture in Wyndham Park at the corner of Manthorpe Road and Belton Lane. The sculptor has used the apple to symbolise the concept of the earth's gravity by carving the continents on its surface.
The sculpture was created from the stump of a horse chestnut tree, but by 2015 was showing signs of fungal attack through the remaining root structure. Following removal and further treatment it was unveiled as a free-standing sculpture in October 2016.
