Small park on Marmion Road that was given over for public use by the Duke of Portland in 1906. The land had previously been a gravel pit. There is not a great deal of greenery here with much of the park being tarmac and includes an enclosed area for football and basketball as well as a separate playground area. Out of shot to the right is The Hive, the park cafe which is owned and run by a local community group. As the only open space in a densely populated area it is a very popular local utility.
