A PARK open day was be a double celebration, marking the 125th anniversary of its official opening.
Crowds flocked to Mayow Park, in Lower Sydenham, for the fun-filled annual event, last Saturday.
Events and activities at the park, which opened on June 1, 1878, included a children’s funfair, face painting, music and dance performances, football coaching and a chance to pick up some circus skills. The day was also used to start fundraising efforts to refurbish the park’s Victorian fountain.
The sixth annual event was held by the Friends of Mayow Park, in association with Glendale Grounds Management and the borough.
