  • History of Parc Cefn Onn
    Friends of Parc Cefn Onn www.friendsofcefnonn.org.uk [email protected] History of Parc Cefn Onn The Friends of Parc Cefn Onn Within the area of North Cardiff known as Lisvane, Cardiff City Council owns a 66.6 acre park known as Parc Cefn Onn. This Welsh name means “Hillside of ash trees”. We need to look back in time to see how this Park came to be established. The past The Dingle area of Parc Cefn Onn (the upper garden area below the top picnic field) was laid out during the period of 1911 to 1933 by Ernest Albert Prosser, general manager of the newly formed Rhymney Valley railway. Prosser was a widower, with a son Cecil who was 14, when his father purchased the estate. Prosser’s intention was to build a new house on the land adjacent to Cwm Farm (now the top picnic field). He lived in Llanishen; but he never built the house on his new estate. His purchase of the land caused some local resentment as he closed established footpaths. Following a protest by local residents this dispute was resolved amicably. The majority of the gardens appear to have been laid out after the First World War. Mr Prosser’s head gardener was Tom Jenkins (left), and it was he who laid out the paths, plants and trees, including building the top pond. It is thought Mr Prosser’s son, Cecil, suffered from TB possibly as a result of his war-time service. The summerhouse overlooking the top pond was constructed for Cecil to rest, as part of his treatment for TB.
