About:
About Our Park has beautiful gardens and flower beds, a great children's play area, large field for ball games and events, a bandstand and Park Wood paths. Story Following a movement to create public parks in the nineteenth century, in 1856 the Town Council bought twelve acres of land between Town Wood and the river Dane with the object of creating an open space in which to lay out a public park. A park committee was appointed but seemingly they needed reassurance about the site. One advisor to whom they applied was James Bateman who had developed a series of impressive gardens at Biddulph Grange. The Congleton and Macclesfield Mercury reported on 27 October 1860: 'We understand that James Bateman Esq. The Grange, has in the company with other members of the Park Committee declared the spot admirably suited to the purpose contemplated (A Public Park)' See more about the history at our website http://www.friendsofcongletonpark.co.uk/congleton-park-history.htm
