The DeLacy family of Pontefract Castle owned the area known as Roundhay in the thirteenth century, when it was a hunting park of around three square miles.
The estate was purchased by the City of Leeds in 1872 and was opened as a public park by His Royal Highness Prince Arthur on the 19th of September the same year.
Roundhay Park now covers over 700 acres of parkland, lakes and woodland and is one of the largest urban parks in the world.
#Newly opened in 2005 is the Friends Garden, located alongside Canal Gardens and the Rainbow Garden. It contains this fountain.
