This area was once used for open cast mining, the history of which is detailed on the on-site information plaque. I am presuming the area was converted to a lake when the site was converted to a Country Park.

Helpful information board can be found here detailing the history of Furnace Pool which was re-modelled in 1987. Originally, the pool was much smaller and was a series of three that may have been a mill pool for a water driven blast furnace at the beginning of the nineteenth century (info from the on-site information plaque). N.B. you can view the pool from here and access the information board. However, access to the pool (from this particular point) is blocked by a fence, so you if you wanted to take a closer look you would need to access it from the roadside entrance.

A very tranquil and peaceful little spot where you can sit on the bench provided and listen to the birds tweet away.

The guardians are metal sculptures which honour the miners that worked at Silverdale colliery. Designed by community artist Luke Perry, the piece was inspired by the men and women of the village who worked for generations to make the pit so successful (info taken from the onsite information plaques). This spot also has nice views over Silverdale Community Park.

Although it was built as recently as 1964/5, it is now listed as a Grade II building!

This has many uplights at its base so I would love to see it live up to its name after dark.

Usually a tree swing comprises either a big knotted rope or a tyre if you are lucky. I do like to see a proper seated swing. It was a decent width which ought to accommodate most bottoms 😁
