Conisbrough Coronation Park was originally a paddock donated to the town by Mrs. Godfrey Walker of Scarborough. It was officially opened on June 22, 1911, marking the coronation of King George V. The park was named Coronation Park to commemorate the event. It served as a village recreation ground before its official opening.
The park is now a popular space featuring a drinking fountain and lamp standard, a war memorial, and other commemorative elements. The drinking fountain, located near the southern entrance, features a dog trough, a main basin, and an octagonal column with a round-arched panel. The war memorial, made of sandstone, includes a life-size statue of an infantryman, a Doric column, and bronze plaques listing names of those lost in the First World War. The park also includes a Memorial Park with a sandstone column, a stepped cap, and bronze plaques commemorating both World Wars.
