Memorial Gardens/Recreation Ground

I am researching the history of the Memorial Gardens and wonder if anyone in Crawley has memories of when this was a recreation ground, and when exactly it bacame known as the Memorial Gardens - I think during the 1960s.
Thank you if you can help.

RE: RE: Memorial Gardens/Recreation Ground

Hi Sally.
We would ride our bikes from Smallfield to Crawley in the summer of 1943 and play on the equipment in the 'Rec' as we knew it, to my knowledge the 'equippment' had been removed when I visited next in 1950.
Any help ?
