Saltwell Park is a Victorian park in Gateshead Tyne and Wear England. Opened in 1876 the park was designed by Edward Kemp and incorporates the mansion and associated grounds of the Saltwellgate estate owner William Wailes who sold his estate to Gateshead Council for £35000. Upon opening it became known as The People’s Park. The park was expanded in 1920 when the council purchased the adjacent gardens to the Saltwell Grove estate and added these to the park.
