Darlington takes pride in its municipal park, straddling the River Skerne just south of the town centre. South Park was landscaped in 1853, and as with a few projects in Darlington at this time, funding was provided by a Quaker family, the Backhouses. When complete South Park was South East England’s first Victorian Park, and has just been given a multimillion pound Heritage Lottery Fund renovation. The park has an aviary with parrots, a bandstand hosting performances all summer, a lake, cafe, updated play areas and a skate park. The formal flowerbeds have also been enlarged with new rose, rock and sensory gardens. The castle-like Park Lodge is a delight, and close by is a cannon from the Siege of Sebastopol (1854-55) in the Crimean War. It’s simply a beautiful place to visit either alone as part of a group Each year there are a few events held in the park and has a great outdoor bowling green
