History edit

The coronation of King Edward VII and his Queen, Alexandra of Denmark was scheduled to take place on 26 June 1902. To mark the occasion, Bournemouth Council agreed on 20 May 1902 to rename common No 59 as "King's Park" and common No 60 as "Queen's Park". The coronation was postponed until August when the King suffered an attack of appendicitis on 25 June.[1]

Attractions edit

Facilities include two children's play areas, an outdoor bowling green, an indoor bowling green, an athletics track, a skate park, a cricket field and pavilion/cafe. The park also has a regular Parkrun.[2]
