A scene from History. From the time a walk in the park for the older generation was a peaceful change from the arduous working day.
Thanks to John Higham for the cutting

Public parks have always been good for people to stop & rest awhile. I think thats the old Grammar School tower showing through the trees.

The park is the jewel in Wigan's crown....let's hope the powers-that-be leave it alone. A lovely, peaceful scene in a beautiful place.

Warm sunshine, the full bloom of Spring and a seat in Mesnes Park.
An idyllic setting to take a breather.
