Williamson Park, Public park in Lancaster, England
The 54-acre Williamson Park contains woodlands, pathways, and overlooks Morecambe Bay with views extending to the Lake District mountains.
The park originated from moorland and quarry sites in the 1870s when millionaire James Williamson Senior initiated its development for public use.
The Dukes Theatre performs outdoor productions during July and August, transforming different park areas into natural theater stages since 1987.
Williamson Park includes a butterfly house, small animal zoo with meerkats, children's play areas, and a café offering refreshments with free wifi.
The park features the Lancaster sundial, positioned where a bandstand once stood, along with fountains, sculptures, and an artificial waterfall.
