Fairy Dell is the garden of the lost Gunnergate Hall which was the home of ironmaster John Vaughan. The park contains a number of sculptures as well as few reminders of the hall.
The Dragon was carved by Steve Iredale in 2006
The Snake Bridge around the same time
Fairy Dell, South of the Lake
Show on map
In the picture above, if you follow the path ( where the snakes head is ) into the distance, there is what looks like a sunken roadway leading from the beck into what is now Fairy Dell Park. The old crossing point of Marton West Beck is at this point as well so could possibly be connected !
