A new footbridge over the River Skerne was built after the lagoon had been filled in and this section of the river straightenedxcvii. The foundations of this bridge remain as part of the current structurexcviii.

There have been several pieces of land added to the park since it first opened, but only one occasion where some land was taken away. It was with the advent of the new section west of the river and the construction of a new footbridge connecting this section to the main body of
the park that the original access path from Grange Road was no longer required. It was blocked off and, from then on, was no longer part of the park. Currently, only the first 40 metres of this path is in use as an access to a modern block of flats (No. 199, Grange Road).

Further along, it is overgrown and derelict. The land does not belong to the Council and it has not been possible to trace the ownershipxcix.
