Greenbank Park

From 1788 to 1940, the Rathbone family owned nearby Greenbank House. In 1897 Liverpool Corporation entered into an agreement with the Rathbone family to purchase land for £13,000 (equivalent to £ in 2023), part of which became Greenbank Park. The walled garden is all that remains of the Rathbone estate on the park. ==Current usage==

Greenbank Park has a children's playground, football, pitches, and a fishing pond, as well as mature trees and a conservation area. The pond provides the focal point within the park. Visitors are able to fish and can watch nesting waterfowl and herons. There is a bridge at the northern end of the pond. Much of the area is open parkland with trees to the perimeter. There is a walled garden containing an artwork dedicated to Eleanor Rathbone by artist Lulu Quinn. == External links ==
