The Anfield Breckfield Regeneration
Plan has always had the
restoration of Stanley
Park at its core as
it provides a vital green
lung for the area.

It is planned to fully
restore the 110 listed
park and buildings and
structures in it during
2007.
Work involves
restoring the third lake;
dismantling the 'Monkey
House' bandstand on
the Priory Road side of
the park ,cleaning and
repairing it and
re-erecting the structure
on the Walton Lane side
of the park (opposite
Everton FC); dismantling
the bowling green
pavilion and re-erecting
it next to the
children's playground on
the Walton Lane side of
the park.
The restoration
programme is aimed at
increased bio-diversity
and improving tree and
landscape management and
better water environment
management.
Work will engage local
people and use the
resources of Liverpool
City Council such as the
Rangers and increased
staffing of the park. Story

The restoration of
Stanley Park is being
carried out
simultaneously with the
construction of the new
stadium. Long-term
additional jobs will be
created through the joint
venture company formed
between LFC and the city
council on maintenance,
management and security
within the park.
