Site formerly occupied by the old Nanaimo graveyard. At one point some of the gravestones were inset into a wall & what was left of the graveyard was turned into a small park, where Audrey Alexander Brown had the vision that resulted in "A Dryad in Nanaimo" in the 1930's, still by far the most popular poem to come out of Nanaimo. More recently the grove of trees was "accidentally" cut down by the city.
