Victoria Park is located in Widnes, an industrial town in norher Cheshire a little east of Liverppol. Town Centre. The Park reports tht it holds the prestgious Green Flag award and is regarded as Halton's premier park. We are not entirely sure what a Halton park is. It may be some sort of conservtion association. Victoria Park opened (1900). It was part bof the celebration for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. Over time the park was allowed to deteriorate. Here we see children still enjoying the play area (figure 1). In recent years, the Heritage Lottery has provided the funding needed to restore Victoria Park to its original splendour. There are attrctions for all afe groups. Interstin ply ares for children as well as a quiet areas to walk your dog. The major features that had disappeared over the years, including the bandstand, fountain, and lake were restblished. The Park has many inviting facilities. There is a secure play facility for the younger children, including an interactive water feature which operates during the summer months). Other fcilities include an ice cream kiosk, park pavilion serving snacks and drinks, bowling greens, model boating lake; floodlit tennis ci=ourts, basketball courts, and skate facility.
