Once the
country estate and mansion of the wealthy Sefton family, Croxteth
Park in the 20th century gradually became surrounded by Liverpool’s
suburbs into which were decanted the poorer and most deprived communities
from central Liverpool’s slums. The demise of the Sefton family
left a park on their doorstep and the task of both conserving a
historic park and garden which had been created to serve a few wealthy
and privileged people and of opening up this superb park as a wonderful
opportunity for open air recreation for the people of Croxteth.
To begin with Liverpool tried to do this without including the community.
Gradually it has been realized that the only future for this park
is with and as part of the local community.
