Hunt Royale [exploration of the historical boundaries of the Royal Park of Toxteth]

[ChrisGeorge]

This event only mentions the boundary of the 'Royal Park of Toxteth', not the whole of Toxteth.

Or was the whole of Toxteth classed as a park at one time?

Hi macateb

I believe we have extablished before that the boundary of the historical Royal Park of Toxteth extended further than what today is called Toxteth. We are talking about ancient boundaries versus local jurisdictional boundaries established in the nineteenth century long after the royal park was disaforrested and begun to be farmed.



Still even if the organizers of this event are not using to the full the area that the park historically covered, this would appear to me to be a fun and educational event to spread awareness and knowledge of our historical heritage. I welcome it for that reason.

All the best
