The park covers an area of 19 acres in the valley of the Tinker Brook, a minor tributary of the River Don. It is home to a variety of fungi, rare plants and animals only found in ancient woodlands. ==History== The valley of the Tinker Brook first became colonised by trees after the last Ice age and has remained wooded ever since. The Tinker Brook and Howe Wood were first mentioned on OS maps in 1855. Glen Howe Park was set up in the valley in 1881 through the patronage of local businessman Joseph Dixon and landowner and stonemason John Mills. Dixon was the owner of the nearby Spring Grove paper mill at Oughtibridge, he was known as a local benefactor who also provided funds towards the school and workers housing at Wharncliffe Side. Mills had previously purchased the land which the park now stands, for £1,000. In 1881 he built Glen Howe Tower at the main (western) entrance to the park and lived there until 1917. He was responsible for much of the landscaping of the park, as well as the cascades and ponds in the brook.〔( Fuelling a Revolution - Glen Howe Park ) Gives History and details of woodland.〕 In the 1890s, charities such as the Ragged School Union, the Fresh Air Group and local police forces brought groups of poor children from Sheffield’s slums to play in the park. In 1913, tennis courts were built in the park on the site of a Medieval manor house. The park was gifted to Wortley District Council by Joseph Dixon and John Mills in 1917. In 1925 a packhorse bridge was dismantled and brought to the park from the Ewden valley. The bridge which dates from 1734 was going to be inundated by the waters of the Morehall Reservoir which was under construction at the time, Joseph Dixon paid for the bridge to be dismantled and moved, it is now a Grade II listed building.〔( Images of England ) Gives details of packhorse bridge.〕 In 1971 ownership of the park passed to Sheffield City Council.〔Information board at Park Gives some History.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glen Howe Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
