Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Sir Sandford Fleming Park is located in the community of Jollimore in Halifax Regional Municipality. It is also known as Dingle Park which means wooded valley. The park was donated to the people of Halifax by Sir Sandford Fleming.

The centrepiece of the park is an impressive tower that commemorates Nova Scotia's achievement of representative government in 1758. The tower was built between 1908 and 1912.

Sir Sandford Fleming, famous for introducing standard time to North America, established a summer retreat, he called The Dingle here in the 1880s.

The Memorial Tower was restored between 2010 and 2013. The total cost was approximately $2.3 million. The Dingle Memorial Tower is open to the public in the summer months and offers spectacular views of the city and Northwest Arm.
