A Park for its people. People's Park opened in 1883.
In 2008, the Heritage Lottery provided funding for it to be restored totalling £2.7 million. Bushes and hedgegrows were removed as the towns down and outs were sleeping rough. Up until then I did not feel safe to walk around the park.
A cafe was built which is run by the local college Grimsby Institute. The park includes a floral hall and an animal house.
This Gazebo has recently been built (2010)
There is an abundance of wildlife.
great for taking the kids to run around, walking the dog, bowling, playing footie on the green, picnics, feeding the ducks, a coffee, cake or two in the cafe or for a casual stroll.
