This is a much re-landscaped industrial area. The OS Six Inch map, 1888-1913 series, shows the Hawkesbury & Bedworth Brick & Tile Works on the site now occupied by the park, with a mineral line running along one side and across Leicester Road to the Bedworth Charity Colliery. https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=17&lat=52.48615&lon=-1.47313&layers=6&right=OSAPI
