Ellenborough Park, Weston-super-Mare, Protected scientific park in Weston-super-Mare, England.

The 1.8-hectare park contains western and eastern sections divided by Walliscote Road, featuring grassland areas and a children's play zone.

The establishment of Ellenborough Park began in 1855 near Ellenborough Crescent, designed to create spaces for retired Indian service members.

The western section maintains plant communities with rare species like Branched Horsetail and Smooth Rupturewort, found in limited locations across Britain.

The eastern portion includes a play area opened in 2005, while the western section remains a field designated for Corpus Christi school activities.

The park's calcareous and sandy soil supports distinctive short-turf grassland with species such as Sand Cat's-tail and Sea Fern-grass.
