Whitworth Park is a public park in south Manchester, England, and the location of the Whitworth Art Gallery. To the north are the University of Manchester's student residences known as "Toblerones". It was historically in Chorlton on Medlock but is now included in the Moss Side ward. The park, of some 18 acres (7.3 ha) opposite Manchester Royal Infirmary, was opened in 1890 on land known as Potters Field. The park was leased to the Corporation of Manchester by the Whitworth Trustees in October 1904 on a 1000-year lease for a nominal annual rent of £10.

  • Whitworth Park est un parc public, localisé au sud de Manchester en Angleterre. Il est juxtaposé à la Whitworth Art Gallery, le musée d’Art moderne et contemporain de la ville. Whitworth Park se situe dans le quartier universitaire. Au nord se trouvent les résidences étudiantes de l'Université de Manchester, appelées Toblerones. Historiquement, le parc était sous la gestion de Chorlton-on-Medlock, un autre quartier de Manchester. Désormais[Quand ?], Whitworth Park est rattaché à la localité de Moss Side. Le parc de quelque 18 acres (7,3 ha), se situe en face de l’hôpital universitaire de Manchester, Manchester Royal Infirmary, et a été inauguré en 1890 sur un terrain appelé Potters Field. En octobre 1904 et en vertu d'un bail de 1000 ans moyennant un loyer annuel nominal de 10 £, les administrateurs de Whitworth Park louèrent le terrain à la Corporation of Manchester. Une statue du roi Édouard VII, réalisée par John Cassidy, a été inaugurée en 1913 du côté est du parc. Elle commémore la visite royale lors de l'inauguration de l’hôpital Manchester Royal Infirmary en 1909. La statue en bronze, montée sur un socle en granit brut à forme carrée, est une classée au grade II. Le parc est un lieu de rencontre pour étudiants et famille vivant aux alentours du parc. (fr)

The park was leased to the Corporation of Manchester by the Whitworth Trustees in October 1904 on a 1000-year lease for a nominal annual rent of £10. A statue of King Edward VII by John Cassidy on the east side, unveiled in 1913, commemorates the royal visit when the new Royal Infirmary was opened in 1909. The bronze statue, mounted on a square, stepped granite plinth and pedestal, is a grade II listed structure. A sign in the park referring to a meteor that fell on the night of Friday 13 February 2015, and was lost, is a hoax commemorative plaque by artist Cornelia Parker which actually refers to 'Blakeian Abstract', one of her artworks which was specifically created for the Whitworth Art Gallery's February 2015 opening.
