Concord Park

Concord Park is a large park in the North of Sheffield, England, between Shiregreen and Wincobank.

The park consists of Concord Park Golf Course, a country park and Woolley Woods, bordered by Ecclesfield Road.

A historic cruck barn lies at the entrance to the park, the last remnant of the Mediaeval hamlet of Oaksfold.

Famous quotes containing the words concord and/or park:

    Nature seemed to have adorned herself for our departure with a profusion of fringes and curls, mingled with the bright tints of flowers, reflected in the water. But we missed the white water-lily, which is the queen of river flowers, its reign being over for this season.... Many of this species inhabit our Concord water.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The label of liberalism is hardly a sentence to public igominy: otherwise Bruce Springsteen would still be rehabilitating used Cadillacs in Asbury Park and Jane Fonda, for all we know, would be just another overweight housewife.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
