RAVENSCRAIG PARK 1986

 Sir Michael Nairn donated Ravenscraig

 Park to the public in 1929. The park 

 was part of his private estate.      

 One of the main attractions of the   

 park is the trees that come from all 

 over the world. The Californian      

 redwood, western hemlock and the     

 maidenhair tree are only some of the 

 many beautiful trees. There is a     

 nature trail which covers the whole  

 park. On the trail you can see a bird

 aviary. There are some lovely flowers

 in the flower beds.                  

 In the summer bands play on the big  

 bandstand.                            

 There is a bowling green with two    

 greens, a pitch 'n put course and a  

 putting green.                       

 There are four tennis courts and     

 facilities for table tennis and      

 trampolining, with a play area for   

 children. The park is beside the sea.

 

Within the arboretum of Ravenscraig Park there is a series of twelve (somethings) designed by Alec Finlay each one containing an embedded crossword clues on the names of trees.

Although the hint item is now missing we are keeping the cache name and information as you can still spot the others of these around the park, and in the hope that one day it may be found and popped back in it's rightful place.
