Coloured photographic postcard showing a view of flower beds and a shelter, in Abington Park, Northampton. Abington Park, Northampton, was the grounds of Abington Manor, a 16th-century manor house, and its estate village, whose ruins remain within the park. The Manor was sold by the family in 1841, and became a lunatic asylum until 1892, when it was donated to the Council, and the grounds redeveloped as a public park
