A thoroughly enjoyable evening last night as the guests of Aireborough Historical Society who invited David Myers and myself to talk about the History of Parkinson’s Park, and show some of the films that David has made in the past about the legacy of Frank and Albert Parkinson.

The association of the site of the Park with Frank and Albert Parkinson began in 1918 when the first F & A Parkinson Ltd works was built on Netherfield Road in order to produce electrical motors.
