Alexandra Park is a 60-acre (240000 m2) park in the Moss Side/Whalley Range districts of Manchester England. It was opened in 1868 and its initial purpose was to deter the working men of Manchester from the alehouses during their day off. The lodge and gateways are the work of Alfred Darbyshire. The park was developed by the Manchester Corporation long before the area was incorporated into the city.
