General notes

"The Rock Garden at Oak Hill Park is a delightful feature, that makes an alluring appeal to the children and an attraction to the grown-ups.
Here, amid a beautiful background of rockery, and foliage of rock plants and trees, with cascades of falling water, are set a number of Statues and Figures arranged in artistic order, which enhance this portion of the Park, and for all time endear it to young and old as the
Children's Corner
Full of hope are life's first hours
Childhood's path is strewn with flowers
Day by day time glides along
Hope and sunshine, mirth, and song."
