The lodge and gateways are the work of Alfred Darbyshire. The park was developed by Manchester Corporation before the area was incorporated into the city, the site being purchased in 1864 from William Egerton, 1st Baron Egerton. The roads to the east and west sides of the park were named Princess Road and Alexandra Road, also in honour of Princess Alexandra.
