Daisy Nook

Daisy Nook is a country park in Failsworth, Greater Manchester, England, which runs through the Medlock Valley.

Brierley asked his friend Charles Potter, an Oldham Artist, to draw an imaginary place called Daisy Nook.

Brierley's description of Daisy Nook was 'Two Banks seemed to have opened to receive a group of neat whitewashed cottages and after filling them with happiness, surrounded them with a curtain of trees, to shelter them from the outside world.

Most of Daisy Nook now belongs to the National Trust after it was left to them by the late James Lublam, J.P. 'in order that the fields and woods be kept as a pleasure area'.

On 8 June 2007 a 1946 work by L. S. Lowry entitled "Good Friday, Daisy Nook" was sold for £3,772,000, the highest price paid for one of his paintings at auction.
