Moss Bank Park is a 34.25ha park in Bolton, Greater Manchester, England.[1] It consists of open space, woodland, gardens and other facilities. Moss Bank Park has been awarded the Green Flag Standard in 2008 and 2009.[2] The Green Flag Scheme is a national standard for public parks and greenspaces that aims to raise standards across the UK.[3] This award puts Moss Bank Park alongside Brighton Pier, London Zoo, Alton Towers and the Norfolk Broads.[2]
Moss Bank Park formerly contained a small zoo and tropical butterfly house.[4] The aviary is home to a historic tower that was originally built as an astronomical observatory by John Horrocks Ainsworth (d. 1864).[5]
