Do You Remember?

Exciting news Friends, we are set to get another interpretation board in the Park. This one will be stationed at the former site of the open air pool and will give visitors an understanding of another slice of the Park's history.

To go along with this Pendle Borough Council are hoping to also install a spot of art work in the Park and this is where you can help!!

Do you remember the open air pool? Did you swim there? Sunbathe there? What is it that makes the pool hold a special place in your memories? Share those memories with us and they could feature in the installation. Leave your memories in the comments below, send them via e-mail or snail mail (details here), bob over to the Facebook page or tweet us @MarsdenFriends. It is that simple and the next time you visit you could see your memory.

Help us tell those who don't remember about our Park's history.

In the meantime the group will be meeting on Saturday 9th February for our regular conservation session. This month we are tackling Willow coppicing, the weather looks set to be fine so why not come along and join us. Learn something new and help improve your local park all at the same time and everyone is welcome!
