This is a place we used to play as kids. It's called the Lords park because there used to be a bridge leading from the park to a nearby cemetery with a huge angel statue guarding it. We would sled down the big hill on one side of the park in the winter (there are steps now for todays sledders) and in the summer we would decorate the angel with picked flowers. There are even some local ghost stories, of course. The big hill is great exercise for adults too! And it's super quiet there, not crowded, only the older locals know about it.
