In the late 1880s English trees were planted around the park and in the early 1890s there was a serious effort to upgrade the area, with walkways formed and seats placed throughout the park.
6 Boer War Memorial Work on the construction of a channel to convey stormwater and limit flooding in the middle of town began in 1887 and continued at intervals for another 50 years. The channel was covered in the late 1930 s. During World War II, the threat of invasion prompted measures to be taken in the event of an air raid with a section of the channel being reinforced with additional concrete to be used as a shelter.
