Hi Anjo,

Queens Park in on Rochdale Road in Harpurhey. It was one of the first Public parks and was opened in 1846.



This Photograph was taken around 1902, photocopies can be purchased from Manchester Library from as little as 50p plus post and packing.

Thats brilliant that ties in with what I wanted it to be. (If that makes sense)
My Smith family lived in Cheetham but some were born in Harpurhey and one was mentioned as being born in Queens Park so thats brilliant.
I appreciate the picture that is an added bonus and the link. Thanks a million.
