Quick facts

The park was laid out for the banker Joseph Pitt's Pittville estate, developed between 1825 and 1842.

Pittville Lake was made between 1825 and 1827 by damming Wyman's Brook, and a separate boating lake opened in 1895.

Cheltenham Council bought the park in 1890 for £5,000, and it is now a Grade II registered park.
