Alexandra Park

This 11 acre park was opened in 1902 to commemorate the coronation of Edward VII, and named in honour of Queen Alexandra. Situated at the top of Beeches Cliff, it gives magnificent panoramic views of the city and the surrounding wooded vales and hills. Access to the park is by a long flight of steps, otherwise known as Jacob's ladder. The walk back down to the city centre through Beechen Cliff can be a challenge in places, but is worth the effort.
