The park was established in the 19th century, serving the community of Dumfries with its riverside location along the River Nith.

The pedestrian bridge is one of the oldest in Scotland. Built in 1432, it crosses the River Nith in the town center and offers scenic views.

The ornate cast-iron fountain was manufactured in Glasgow and unveiled in 1882 to commemorate the introduction of clean drinking water to the town.

The building with its clock tower was constructed in 1705. It has served many purposes over the centuries, including as a prison and a clerk's chamber.

The statue was commissioned by the Dumfries town council in 1877 and designed by sculptor Amelia Paton Hill. It was carved from Carrara marble in Italy and was unveiled by the Earl of Rosebery in 1882.
