Allan Park Art.

 Recently updating a set of images I posted in November 2016 of Allan Park, I found a set of 3 artworks I created of the park featuring the bowling green, a set of steps inside the park and a flower in bloom.

Allan Park is a public gardens and playground set in a woodland clinging to the Norland hillside. The park was once the grounds of Allan House which was purchased by the local council in 1922 and converted in to a public park. The park is something of a hidden gem being within a couple of minutes of the town centre and railway station, but never seemingly busy possibly due to its location on the other side of town from the major population centres. The park features a number of woodland walks, a playground and bowling green but no toilet or refreshment facilities, another reason it's probably quieter than most public park in Calderdale. Another feature of the park is the top of the Scar Head Tunnel entrance can be found by following one of the paths. The tunnel being part of the now closed Rishworth Branch Railway Line along the Ryburn Valley Bottom. Click here to see my November 2016 post featuring 11 pictures taken around the park.

The 3 artworks below are based on some featured in that set of photo's. They can be seen below or full size, resolution and un-watermarked only on Clickasnap.
