Queens Park, known as ‘The Jewel in the Crown’ was dedicated to the people of Crewe in July 1887 to mark the joint occasion of the Queen’s Jubilee and the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Grand Junction Railway.

The Friends of Queens Park are a group of volunteers, who support the park by raising awareness about the park and the facilities, whilst promoting opportunities for involvement.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
