Mary Shuttleworth Boden

She donated land to Derby on Bold Lane in memory of her husband which was equipped with sixteen swings as an area for girls, boys and small children to play.

[4] They had seven children, Henry Walter Degge Shuttleworth, Anthony Drummond, Reginald Sam, John Wadham, Cherrie Evelyn, and Ellen Mary.

For some time, she interested herself in various ways in the women employees of Castle Fields Works (Messrs. Boden & Co.) and conducted a large sewing class weekly.

Boden was regarded as leader in many social and religious undertakings, conducting and addressing many drawing-rooms and public meetings in England.

It was said to be the town's first properly equipped play area with sixteen swings and a sand pit,[6] opening as a park on 7 July 1910.
