Parks and open spaces in Swindon - Queen's Park

The park was designed to reflect the modern informality of the 1960's, rather than the Victorian splendour and formality of Town Gardens.
How to get there
Park is located near the Swindon Town Centre, with the main entrances being off Drove Road and York Road. There is also an entrance off Groundwell Road, and at the bottom of Durham Street.

There is no designated car parking for Queen's Park, so please use public transport or public car parking facilities available in the town centre.
