The description of this image has been produced by the group. To listen to an audio of this description as well as some of the participants' personal memories inspired by the image, watch the video below.



This picture shows Saltwell Park in Gateshead. The land was bought by Gateshead Corporation in 1876. The picture shows Saltwell Towers in the bottom left hand corner of the picture. It was built as the home of William Wailes, a stained glass designer. Joseph Shipley later lived there. Saltwell Towers was a museum, and is now the park centre and tea room. At the bottom of the picture in the middle is the octagonal bowling green. Just to the right of this is the aviary. At the top of the picture in the middle is the park lake and more bowling greens. On the very edge of the picture, at the bottom left, the edge of the maze can be seen. To the right of Saltwell Towers there are the geometric patterns of flower beds. It is a lovely park.
