Preston Park (officially Preston Hall Park) is a 100-acre (0.40 km2) public park in Preston-on-Tees, England. It hosts multiple events each year and is located next to the River Tees.
The land was originally a private residence with large grounds but has since become the property of Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council after being purchased from Sir Robert Ropner.[1] and was redeveloped in 2010–12, with the Museum reopening in 2012.
Parking is free, but the Preston Park Museum & Grounds and Butterfly World have small admission charges.[2] The museum has a volunteer community with its participants ranging from students to the retired. They carry out roles in the Museum such as gardening, gallery stewarding, supporting learning and costumed interpreters on the Victorian Street.[3]
