Coventry’s War Memorial Park opened in July 1921 as a tribute to the 2,587 Coventrians who died during the First World War. Coventry City Council used money donated by the public to purchase the land from the Lords of Styvechale Manor, the Gregory-Hood family. At the time it was a large grassed area that was part of Styvechale (Stivichall) Common. The landscaped gardens and sports areas were created in the late-1920s and 1930s. During the Second World War, barrage balloons and anti-aircraft guns were sited in the park and the large concrete blocks where they were positioned still exist.

Large green park with many tarmac'd paths in good condition. Also contains football and cricket pitches, foot-golf course, tennis courts, skate park and childrens' activity playground.

There are two cafes within the two pavillions, along with ornamental areas with ponds.

There is a large War Memorial monument.

The park is also home to Coventry Park Run.
