When in Orange we did our walk around Cook Park. This is a lovely Victorian era park established in 1873 and covers an area of 4 hectares.
I love old parks with their mature trees and interesting old structures.
Everyday delights in Penrith, Kandos in mid-western NSW and beyond
Beautiful, shady place.
ReplyDeleteMust be wonderful to sit on a bench there and enjoy a good book.
Probably. But do you take books to the park to read? I don’t.
DeleteMe too Joan Elizabeth, old stuff has always been more appealing to me. Cook Park sounds wonderful.. is that a Victorian bandstand?
ReplyDeleteI think it is ... but then it could be a modern look alike. Either way it is nice.
DeleteThat gazebo is a welcome sight.
ReplyDeleteIt was a warm day so yes it was welcome.
DeleteIt's in a beautiful setting
ReplyDeleteI wish my garden looked like that.
DeleteI love those gazebos you find in parks. That one in Cook Park looks very attractive.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they get used much? Doesn’t matter if they don’t because as you say they look good , like a nice piece of garden sculpture.
DeleteCook Park beckons. It looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteNext time we are in orange we will go back again. Sometime in the past I got some glorious autumn photos there.
DeleteThis park looks lush and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteFor the most part it is, from years of tender care I guess. The mature trees are very special.
