Devonport Park is a public park located in Devonport, Devon, England.[1] The historic park which is now grade II listed, dates back to the 1850s and is situated on former military land.[2] The park is home to many historic monuments including a war memorial to the 2,000 Devonport citizens who died in the First World War.[3] There is a disused railway tunnel underneath the park that used to be the route of the Plymouth, Devonport and South Western Junction Railway.[4]
