Grosvenor Park, Victorian park in Chester, England
Grosvenor Park spans 20 acres of landscaped grounds with formal avenues, statues, and sweeping lawns that overlook the River Dee.
Richard Grosvenor, 2nd Marquess of Westminster, donated the land and funded Edward Kemp's design, leading to the park's grand opening in 1867.
The park hosts summer performances at Grosvenor Park Open Air Theatre, where productions range from Shakespeare to contemporary plays.
Visitors can access the Lodge Cafe for refreshments, use the children's play area, or ride the miniature railway operating from February to November.
Three medieval arches, including the 13th-century St Mary's Arch from a Benedictine Nunnery, were relocated to various locations throughout the park.
