General notes
In 1886 a local act was passed giving Nelson Local Board the power to create recreation grounds. In May of that year an agreement was signed with Mr Every-Clayton for the purchase of 20 acres for recreation grounds adjacent to Carr Road and east of Pendle Water. Of this 8 acres were for a public park Ten years later additional land was acquired on the western side of Pendle water. The photograph shows part of this additional land looking west towards the old corn mill buildings used by the parks department
