Kingswood Park has been the focus for the local and wider community for generations, and has hosted many events over the years. The Park is currently being restored via a multi-million pound, three year project funded by South Gloucestershire Council, the National Lottery Heritage Fund and volunteers.
The planned improvements aim to make the Park the green heart of Kingswood, where people can go to relax and socialise in a safe, welcoming, well managed setting as well as enjoy high quality facilities, outdoor activities and events.
One of the many events that the Park has hosted in previous years was the “Miss Kingswood” competition, which took place in the Park every year. The picture (above) show some of the winning contestants in 1968.
Kingswood Heritage Museum would like to hear from any of our readers who remember these events or other events that took place in Kingswood Park. If you have any memories that you would like to share please contact us on 0117 960 5664 or by email at: kingswoodmuseum@gmail.com
