  • Aspects of Waterford City



In 1855, the Mayor of Waterford, John A. Blake, ordered that the marshland beside the Newtown Road be cleared and work to begin on the building of The People's Park for the people of Waterford City.

The Park was partly funded with donations from Waterford citizens.
