Introduction
The layout of 1909 is little altered today although the bowling green has been relocated in the south-east corner. Buildings pre-dating the park layout include the entrance lodge on the junction of Church Path and Mostyn Road, a two-storey lodge and an archway, both inside the park. The bandstand, cricket pavilion and toilet block all date from the 1909 layout although an ornate drinking fountain has since gone.
