Question
editThis is a very good article.
Quoting one sentence: "Enfield's Town Park is however the only public remnant of the open space that was once Enfield Old Park."
This raises the question in my mind, in its long history, was Enfield Old Park ever "open to the public"?
To put it another way, was the purpose of the fence to keep the game in or to keep the public out, or both?

- Thank you for your commendation. The original Old Park was not open to the public, and was indeed fenced to keep them out and the game in, which is why the sentence is framed as it is.Smerus (talk) 12:34, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
