Her husband, a wealthy manufacturer, left the Conservative party on account of its opposition to the Local Veto Bill. {{sfn|Chapin|1895|p=18}}Personal lifeAfter her husband died in 1908, she donated land in Bold Lane to be known as "Boden Pleasaunce" to the city of Derby. The land was divided into areas for boys, girls and small children to play. It was said to be the town's first properly equipped play area with sixteen swings and a sand pit,[1] opening as a park on 7 July 1910. Decorative wrought iron gates still stand next to the building and include the Boden's Crest and a plaque dedicated to Henry Boden and recording her gift.[2] Boden paid over £1000 to help it open and she received a golden key from the Mayor when it did open. She installed see-saws later, but by 1934 the council were finding other uses for the land. During the war it stored fire-engines and by 1974 it was being used to park cars. Today there is a multi-story car park on the site but the Boden's Pleasuance is still remembered.[3] Boden died at Derby, 21 July 1922.{{sfn|Cherrington|1924|p=361}} References1. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/nostalgia/mary-boden-turned-pocket-land-1331446|title=Mary Boden created Derby’s first ‘properly equipped’ playground|date=2018-03-13|work=derbytelegraph|access-date=2018-08-27|language=en-GB|issn=0307-1235}} 2. ^{{Cite web |url=http://www.derbyphotos.co.uk/areas_city/boldlane.htm |publisher=Savage, Andy |title=Photographs around the Bold Lane Area of Derby, England |date=2005|accessdate=2018-08-27}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/nostalgia/sad-end-derbys-first-properly-1361011|title=Sad end to Derby’s first playground as it became site of car park|date=2018-03-20|work=derbytelegraph|access-date=2018-08-29|language=en-GB|issn=0307-1235}} Attribution
