David Appleyard designed and created 121 canaries to commemorate the 121 years of the Park’s existence. The canary theme was chosen because the Park once housed an aviary of exotic birds. The canaries’ various colours represent the colours of the sweets once produced by Hall’s sweet works which stood opposite the Park on the site of the Morrisons car park.
