It's a popular Nottingham park that's steeped in history
An historic Nottingham park Visited by countless park go-ers seven days a week is adored by dog walkers, runners and people in the community who fancy a stroll. Those who use and live near Woodthorpe Grange Park have said they love living near nature.
A group of volunteers from the Friends of Woodthorpe Park help to look after the park. Picking up litter, gardening and cleaning graffiti are just some of the tasks the group of volunteers carry out to help keep it looking at its best. The chairman of the group, Paul Swift is a local historian. Paul also does tour guides of the park. The historian continued: “In 1877 it was Henry Ashwell who owned the Woodthorpe Estate; this was when times were moving from the Victorian era to industrialist.”
