The ethereal grotto hidden away in city park with secret walkway and miniature pond - but it needs a bit of TLC
Beautiful and expansive - two words that describe the Avenham and Miller Parks so well. But there is one fantastical gem that blends so well into the surroundings , that you might not have even realised its there.
Two of the main footpaths in the park travel along the River Ribble and meet at the top past the Belvedere and the Earl of Derby statue. Both paths end up, at the entrance closest to The Continental pub, which also stands along the side of the river. Thousands of pounds were spent over months of restoration works. A controller waterfall from the top of the rock formation was fitted to allow visitors to interact with the intriguing feature.
But visitors who walk past now will see that, while the plaque and control panel remains at the site, the entire structure is in need of some TLC once again. Algae filled waters can be seen in the pond and there is no sign of the waterfall anymore.
