Dolphin Gardens is named after the nearby Dolphin Hotel and Dolphin Street and as development happened all around, a space remained which became the gardens just across the road from the more famous Pier Gardens.<\/p>\n

The current parks is only half the size it used to be and has trees, flower beds and shrubs. It is dominated by a central piece of art work of an anchor with dolphins.<\/p>\n

Just after the war the gardens were developed from a piece of spare ground and in their heyday included a bandstand and was the site of numerous local events.<\/p>\n

Apparently in the 1990s there was a bid to turn the space into carparking for 45 cars, but luckily after public protests this plan was abandoned and the gardens remain gardens to this day.<\/p>\n
