As Manchester’s newest park opens to the public this week, it’s worth shining a light on some of the long-standing green spaces our city region has to offer.

Mesnes Park is in fact Grade II listed and walking around the park is like stepping back in time. It’s packed full of interesting details - some of which are also Grade II listed - and a recent £6.1million restoration project, funded by the Heritage Lottery, has seen the park being restored to its former Victorian glory.
