Roath park was built in the early 1890s on 130 acres of reclaimed marshland, known then as a malarial bog, and includes the 30-acre Roath Lake (1.3 Miles around) formed by the damming of the Nant Fawr stream.

 

 

The land for Roath Park was donated by the Marquis of Bute to the City of Cardiff in 1887. The park was officially opened to the public in 1894. Work initially focused on creating the lake from an area of marshland.

The Wild Gardens or Wild Wood

 

Roath park occupies a long strip of land stretching from Cyncoed in the north to Roath towards the southeast. The park is divided into several parts along the Roath Brook, Nant Fawr. From north to south; The Wild Gardens or Wild Wood, Roath Park Lake, Botanical Gardens, Rose Gardens, Pleasure Gardens, Roath Park Recreation Ground, Roath Brook Gardens, Roath Mill Gardens and Waterloo Gardens.

 

The Scott Memorial Lighthouse

 

 

In 1915 a lighthouse was constructed in the lake containing a scale model of the 'Terra Nova' ship to commemorate Captain Scott's ill-fated expedition to the South Pole from Cardiff in 1910.

 

The Roath Park Conservatory

 

 

There is a glasshouse in Roath Park which was built in Victorian times. It contains many unusual species of plants and trees such as palms, banana trees and orchids. A pond and waterfall form an interesting feature, containing fish, terrapins and whistling ducks. Amongst the plants you may spot one of the Green Water Dragons. There is also the chance to talk with the botanical assistants about your own garden or pick up some leaflets. Swan and duck food is on sale for feeding the birds on the lake.

Concerns about the fate of the wildlife as

Tekels Park is to be Sold to a Developer

 

Concerns are raised about the fate of the 

wildlife as The Spiritual Retreat, 

Tekels Park in Camberley, Surrey, 

England is to be sold to a developer.

 

Tekels Park is a 50 acre woodland park,

 purchased for the Adyar Theosophical 

Society in England in 1929.

 

In addition to concern about the park, 

many are worried about the future 

of the Tekels Park Deer as they 

are not a protected species.

 

Confusion as the Theoversity moves out of 

Tekels Park to Southampton, Glastonbury & 

Chorley in Lancashire while the leadership claim

that the Theosophical Society will carry on using 

Tekels Park despite its sale to a developer

 

Anyone planning a “Spiritual” stay at the

Tekels Park Guest House should be aware of the sale.
