He donated the land on the provision that no public houses were to be built within the estate. The park was transferred to council ownership in 1933 to be used as a public space. Over time, the gardens became overgrown but more recently a group of volunteers, Friends of Norris Green Park (FoNGP), has been working to create new opportunities to improve the park for the benefit of local people and residents of the city.
