Public Parks and Amenities

Brooke Park

Brooke Park

An important part of the city’s landscape, public parks were well used by the community over the decades, and fondly remembered by older generations. Plans for a number of the city’s best-loved parks are held in the city’s archives, including Brooke Park on the Cityside and St Columb’s Park on the Waterside. Alterations to changing and toilet facilities, plans for allotments and pavilions sit side-by-side with drawings illustrating playing fields and green spaces.
