Flowerbeds at Victoria Park, Denton
Last week when I was walking through Victoria Park I couldn't help but notice this gorgeous display of mainly yellow flowers.
See how it looked in February.
In the background is a mural which was painted on the wall of Denton Pool (Swimming Baths) in 2000. It was conceived by David Vaughn and commissoned by the Denton Town Twinning Association. It serves to commemorate both the second millenniumm and the continuing friendship between the people of Denton and Montigny le Brettoneux.
For a better view of the mural see my post of March 26th 2012.
