Opening of Wallsend Park

June 4, 1900

Wallsend Park was officially opened by shipyard owner, George Burton Hunter, on the 4th June 1900. The opening is said to be the largest ever assembly witnessed at a public event in Wallsend. The 14 acres of land for the park had been donated by Robert Richardson Dees in 1897; it had previously been the site of the Wallsend 'C' pit. (the park is now called 'Richardson Dees Park').
