En route to Albert Park along Linthorpe Road enjoy a break in this smaller urban park and playground situated on the site of a former cemetery.
Features a basketball court and childrens play area. At the edge of the grass by Linthorpe Road look down and see cast iron sculptures of "World Fruit" by local artist Andrew McKeown.
At the entrance is the Millennium Arch, originally located in Victoria Park (now Centre Square).
Ayresome Cemetery was once one of the town's biggest graveyards before it was decommissioned in 1962. Among those buried in Ayresome Cemetery are Sir Hugh Gilzean Reid, founder of the Evening Gazette and the children of Middlesbrough's founding fathers Henry Bolckow and John Vaughan.
In 2012 the ground was dedicated as a Queen Elizabeth Field In Trust at a special celebratory event.
It means the green space will always be maintained for recreational and sports use.
