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.

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.

This outcrop tells a story of when Kenilworth lay just north of the Equator in a semi-desert climate with market wet and dry seasons. Many buildings in Old Kenilworth, notably the Castle, the Abbey and St. Nicholas Church, are built of the local Kenilworth Sandstone that you can observe here.

As part of the creation of a new UK Mail facility at the Prologis Park Ryton, our client Prologis had created a temporary borrow pit as part of the works and inadvertently, created the perfect new home for a colony of Sand Martins Riparia riparia which moved in and successfully bred (2015). The birds were left to nest in peace after a wide exclusion zone was implemented but realising that the site was on the birds’ migration route together with the fact that the borrow pit couldn’t stay on site long-term, we worked with Prologis, Whiting Landscapes and the park rangers at nearby Ryton Pools Country Park to create a brand new permanent and purpose-built nesting site in this 100 acre site managed jointly between Warwickshire County Council and Warwickshire Wildlife Trust. The Sand Martin nesting wall was completed in March 2016 and this year has already had a couple of pairs taking an interest. As well as providing a large and safe nesting habitat, the 15m long structure also has a number of pre-formed swallow nest sites and a rear door inspection hatch so that the rangers can keep an eye on the nesting progress and carry out any necessary maintenance. To prevent predation by other wildlife such as stoats, an anti-predator baffle has been installed below the tunnels which have been constructed of plastic pipes. We also helped create the new information board which has been installed opposite the nesting wall to inform the local visitors to the country park about the new nesting site. It’s hoped that grizzled skipper butterflies will also benefit from the new structure as one of the food plants of the larvae stage – strawberries – are to be planted on the aggregate roof in the near future! Sand Martins are gregarious and therefore tend to nest in large colonies. They are Europe’s smallest hirundine (martins and swallows) and the insectivorous birds are summer visitors to the UK, over-wintering in Africa.

On 11th November 2014 a memorial was unveiled  in the Jephson Gardens, between the Aviary and Willes Road entrance.  The memorial will remember all those who played any part in World War One, including the widows and orphans and those who served at home. The Leamington History Group applied for the grant for the memorial and worked with Warwick District Council and Leamington Town Council to commission the sculpture. The memorial was designed by Tim Tolkien and the central feature consists of two poppies in flower and one stem with a seed-head at the top. All the poppies are entwined with barbed wire and this extends to wrap around some adjoining fencing. The tablet in front states simply “The Poppies; Lest We Forget”. The plaque naming the sculptor calls it “Barbed Poppies”. It is a subtle design which is not quite as immediate in effect as the sea of poppies surrounding the Tower of London in November 2014 but many people we have spoken to agreed that it evoked a strong emotional response.

Kenilworth Sandstone exposed in Kenilworth old railway cutting Warwickshire Museum. Situated at the eastern end of the Kenilworth Greenway, the cycle and pedestrian path that runs south-east of the new Coventry Road bridge passes through a disused railway cutting, excavated partly through the local natural bedrock. This can seen in the banks adjacent to the path and consists of thick beds of red sandstone. This is the so-called Kenilworth Sandstone, dating back roughly 280 million years to the Permian Period. The sandstone originated as river sand, deposited on river floodplains at a time when what is now Warwickshire was much closer to the equator, and enjoyed a hot, semi-arid climate. The Kenilworth Sandstone was once quarried locally for building stone, and can be seen in many of the older buildings in and around the town. Kenilworth Castle is undoubtedly the best known example.
