Never developed and taken out of the Park in 1950s.

When the Park was originally carved up for individual ownership by each of the three founding fathers, Pitt acquired plots 2,3,4 and Wood acquired plots 5,6,7. Presumably due to the difficulties in selling plots for development over the first ten years; these six plots were sold to Dickson who owned the surrounding land as their nursery business. Another possibility is that the land was deemed to wet for housing although the site surveyor had laid out plans for housing on these plots in the mid-1850s. A conveyence dated 29 September 1870, shows Pitt selling plots 2,3 & much of 4 to Mrs Selina Dickson. The plan of this conveyance shows the remainder of plots 2 - 7 (and possibly part of plot 8) at 12122 sq yds and not with plot allocations - possibly suggesting that Dicksons may have already acquired this from Wood.

The earliest Park accounts ledger show Dicksons owning 11260 sq yds of covenanted Park land and being charged at the same sq yd rate as the developed plots. It appears that they were not actually paying this full amount and then in 1928 the Park rate went over to being based on Council Rateable Value which brought their charges down significantly to a level that they did honour.

Come the post WW2 housing development; property was encrouching the Park on this side. In 1953 UPPA decided to close the gateway into what had been Dicksons Nursery. The track ran between plots 2,3,4 on one side and 5,6,7 on the other. When Dicksons sold out it appears that Pritchard & Shone had acquired plots 2 through 7 and in 1957 UPPA was informed that Letts were seeking to build on these plots. Finally a Land Tribunal met on 30 January 1958 under Mr J R Laird TD FRICS FAI and made a ruling as reported in 'The Estates Gazette, 22 March 1958'.

He ruled that 'he was not satisfied that the covenant is entirely obsolete' however with the plots having no access to the Park, the Park properties would suffer no injury from the proposed development.

The plots duly left the Park and Finer Homes who had submitted the application began housing development.
