Once
well
used
by
fishermen
and
to
dump
stolen
cars
in.
This
very
nice...
er..
ok
let's
be
generous
and
call
it
a
lake,
it's
not
really
a
lake
though
is
it,
it's
a
big
man
made
pond.
Any
ways,
it
once
had
a
few
lake
side
cottages
that
were
lived
in
and
open
as
a
much
needed
café.
But
due
to,
shall
we
say
the
more
vigorously
stupid
teens
in
the
area
they
were
vandalized
an
eventually
renovated,
i.e.
pulled
down.
The
park
itself
is
one
of
Leeds
3
great
parks
boasting
original
ancient
woodland
and
part
home,
(the
rail
traks
end
just
in
side
the
park),
to
the
World's
oldest
steam
powered
railway.
That's
the
oldest
one
in
the
whole
world!
Yes
you
should
be
impressed.
It
was
run
to
service
Middleton
coal
mine.
Who's
methane
gas
still
seeps
out
into
the
surrounding
housing
estates.
You
can
occasionally
see
men
going
around
taking
gas
measurements
from
unusual
looking
pipes
protruding
from
wall's.
It
was
also
home
to
a
larger
mansion
and
rosé
garden.
But
again
the
building
was
given
the
vigorous
attention
of
local
dimwits
and
was
also
dully
renovated.
See
if
you
can
find
where
it
used
to
be!
Running
along
the
back
of
the
park
is
a
well
built
but
narrow
gravel
road.
This
was
at
one
time
the
Blue
Bell
tram
line
and
is
a
nice
way
to
walk.
Where
you
can
play
spot
the
burnt
out
car
or
see
how
many
glue
bags
you
can
see.
Lots
of
fun
for
the
family.
Though
in
an
attempt
to
clean
the
park
up
there
is
now
a
visitor
center
an
actual
paths
layed
down
so
hopefully
it
will
be
regain
it's
more
friendly
atmosphere
