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.

The War Memorial Park in Coventry is a tribute to the lives lost during WWI and 2. The park spans 121 acres and offers a peaceful and serene atmosphere to relax and stroll around in. The park features walking paths, sports fields, a playground and a lake.

Pretty tree-lined avenue in the War Memorial Park. Pack yourself some lunch and take a seat on one of the many picnic benches along here.

Pretty pond with plenty of wildlife to observe.

These sculptures were created to remind visitors of the rich geological history of the Ryton Pools where pieces of neck, tooth and tusk of the straight-tusked elephant were found in the local sand quarries. These massive creatures roamed this area half a million years ago and the life size sculptures bring to life the ancient history of the park.

Although part of Ryton Wood was lost to sand and gravel extraction in the 1960s, the wood has been returned to its present excellence though traditional management practices, and is one of the county's largest surviving semi-natural ancient woodlands. Arguably the best of the Princethorpe Woods, Ryton Wood covers 85 hectares, has been designated as an SSSI and boasts an extensive list of notable species. Parts of Ryton Wood date back to the 11th century, so the land may have been wooded since the end of last ice age. Finding coppiced, small-leaved lime stools is evidence to support this. Once the most common tree 5,000 years ago, the species is no longer so common. Huge ditches also indicate the wood’s ancient, medieval boundaries. Forty or so species of tree and shrub have been identified, with oak the dominant tree. An abundance of honeysuckle, our county flower, scrambles through the lower-growing hazel - enjoy its sweet perfume on summer days.
