Victoria Park, Whiteinch
Come with us to explore the heritage, culture and wildlife of Victoria Park from prehistoric times to the present. Our digital walk will start at the Main Gates, which commemorate Queen Victoria’s jubilee and the opening of the Park in 1887. The walk will finish at the Partick Curling Pavilion, which was one of the first arrivals to the Park but sadly closed this year. Our visit will take in: the former bandstands; the SS Daphne memorial; the listed WWII memorial by Francis William Doyle-Jones; the famous Fossil Grove with its preserved fossil tree trunks from approximately 325 million years ago, the Oswald Clock; both ponds; in addition to the fine ornamental formal gardens.
