The park has a number of facilities, including tennis courts, bowling greens, crazy golf and a café. It also hosts an Italian garden with a pond and various flower displays. The meadow is a large open space used for picnics and to host events, and also has a pitch and putt course. HistoryThe local Council, then known as Torquay County Council purchased the land in 1924 for £40,000, and developed into the park it is today. The first facilities to be completed were the tennis courts, which hosted a Davis Cup match in 1924.[1] References1. ^{{cite web|url= https://www.torbay.gov.uk/leisure-sports-and-community/parks/find-a-park/abbey-park/|title=Abbey Park and Meadows|publisher=torbay.gov|accessdate=13 September 2018}} 1 : Parks and open spaces in Devon |
