Step into Alderman Kneeshaw Park, or Barham Park, as many still fondly call it, where squirrels scurry, saucers hover, guitars echo, and ghosts occasionally wander. This pocket-sized collection of flash fiction and poetry celebrates the spirit of a beloved Hull green space, brought to life through whimsy, memory, and imagination. From the cheerful green uniformed park rangers who care for the grounds, to the tireless volunteers of the Friends of Alderman Kneeshaw Park, this park thrives on community. Events, fundraisers, and family fun days fill the calendar, while sports teams, from baseball and bowls to football and junior parkrun, keep the fields buzzing with energy. Children splash in the play fountains, dogs dash through the dog park, and laughter lingers in the air. Hull’s own Mick Ronson, legendary guitarist of the Spiders from Mars, once worked here as a park keeper, a local lad with a mower and a dream. His legacy lives on in music, murals, and memory. Author Michelle Rae Lee, a former park volunteer, walks here daily with her Cockapoo Ozzy, who also stars in her Time-Tails books. The park features in her Vincent Vee adventures too, woven with love and local magic. All royalties from this book go directly to the Friends of Alderman Kneeshaw Park, supporting their brilliant work to keep the park vibrant, welcoming, and full of life
