Fletcher Moss Garden is in Didsbury, Manchester, England, between the River Mersey and Stenner Woods.
The park is named after Alderman Fletcher Moss, who donated the park to the city of Manchester in 1915. It is part garden and part wildlife habitat, but also offers recreational facilities such as tennis courts, rugby and football pitches, and a family-run café and ice cream parlour.
