Victoria Park
The flowerbeds in Victoria Park are usually bursting with crocuses by late February but this year they've not yet emerged. In the background is the Millennium Mural on the side of the swimming baths.
Denton Mural
The Denton mural was painted on the wall of Denton Pool facing Victoria Park in 2000. It was conceived by David Vaughan and commissioned by the Denton Town Twinning Association. It serves to commemorate both the second millennium and the continuing friendship between the people of Denton and Montigny le Brettoneux.
A stitched "pano" of the mural can be found at Link
