The Memorial Children's Park, or Redmond Park as it is more widely known, is a quaint and charming oasis right in the heart of Wexford town. It was formally established in 1933 to remember Major Willie Redmond who died in 1917 in the Great War. In the decades since it has given joy to generations of Wexford families and it remains a favourite with Wexford families today. Redmond Park deserves a blog!

Guides go wild in the park!
Last Summer the Clonard Girl Guides, under the guidance of the Council's Environment Officer Clíona Connolly, sowed a variety of native wildflower seeds in the park's Wildflower Meadow. The result? A beautiful splash of vibrant colours across the top of the park. They also helped build the multi-tiered insect hotel in one corner of the "meadow". And what name did they give this structure? The Buglington!
