Description: Ornate Fountain in Victoria Park This park is on Jemmett Road, it is bounded on one side by the River Stour. The park was opened officially in 1899. The fountain, which is 'listed' was purchased from the Great Exhibition of London 1851, by Major Sawbridge Erle-Drax. He installed it on his estate at Olantigh near Wye. In 1912, the estate was sold to a businessman who presented the fountain to Ashford Borough Council. The Stour Valley Walk (long distance path) goes through the park.
