As a mark of tribute to the craftsmanship of our forefathers, decorative limestone has been extensively incorporated on the walls of Emancipation Park including the restrooms, maintenance building and main office. Limestone is also used on the perimeter fence. Most of the stones for the Park was sourced from Haddo, Westmoreland.
