Could be wrong, but I think this is some kind of moorhen looking after its nest on the Lido in the Walmersley area of Bury, Lancashire.
As a child about 40 years ago, I remember my parents taking me and my younger brother up to the Lido on Sunday afternoons, as many people flocked there to go swimming; have picnics; play a bit of sport on the grass etc.
Nowadays, the Lido is still an interesting place, but it's obviously in the process of being (interestingly) reclaimed by nature.
