Park life

10:28am Tuesday 19th January 2010

John Rylands, the major owner of the estate last century, which became a public park in 1912, was not only “King Cotton” in his day but also a regular, generous benefactor to the local community. Facilities such as a local baths, a public lending library and even a coffee house were provided by him for local residents. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if current large landowners and businesses were equally generous with their capital?
