Fitzgerald park in Cork city The Fitzgerald Park in park was busy, lots of families out in the playground, folks sitting out in the cafe terrace drinking coffee and enjoying buns....you'd hardly believe its the first week in November!
I'd had Fitzgerald Park on my visiting list when I first knew I was coming to Cork, I wanted to see how the 2011 Chelsea Gold medal winning garden by Diarmuid Gavin was incorporated into the park, and how user-friendly it all was.
The garden was alive with families enjoying all the stainless balls, although I seemed to be the only one interesting in the planting schemes...
Its great to see public money being put to a use that so many families can engage with and get direct benefit from.
