Background
History
The park is Victorian and was opened in 1895 to provide the people of Maldon with a green space. The original park lodge has been converted into Maldon Museum. Maldon Marine Lake was created in 1905, and greatly added to the attraction of the area as a location for outdoor swimming. In 2002, there was a fatality at the lake, and unable to afford lifeguards, the district council banned swimming. In 2017, there was a petition for the return of swimming at the lake.
