Barrow Park

Barrow Park is a 45-section of land open park in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, England. It is found altogether inside the Parkside ward, to which the park loans its name, bound by Abbey Road, Park Drive, Greengate Street and Park Avenue. Barrow Park was planned by Thomas Mawson in 1908 and was developed in stages over the accompanying two decades. Initially sited on the edges of Barrow, the park is presently pretty much focal because of fast development of the town northwards amid the mid twentieth century. It is assigned by Historic England as Grade II on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.

The park contains an extensive sculling lake, smaller than expected railroad, skate park, different play areas and the Park Leisure Center. The Barrow Parkrun happens inside the park each Saturday. Huge areas of Barrow Park were redeveloped in 2005 to incorporate another structure, bistro, bandstand and show glasshouse. The multi-useful relaxation office is situated in the eastern edge off Barrow Park and is home to two substantial swimming pools, a rec center, practice studios and a games corridor. The park has since increased Green Flag status. The most notorious element of Barrow Park is the town's main cenotaph; remembering right around 900 Barrovians who lost their lives in different wars. The commemoration is situated at the most astounding purpose of the park on the site of a late Bronze Age fortress offering 360-degree perspectives of Barrow.
