Gheluvelt Park, War memorial park in Worcester, United Kingdom.

The 9.7-acre park contains a triumphal arch entrance, a bandstand on an island, and multiple recreational spaces with mature deciduous trees.

Gheluvelt Park opened in 1922 on the former grounds of Barbourne House to commemorate the Battle of Gheluvelt from World War I.

The park includes twelve Arts and Crafts style houses constructed between 1919 and 1920 specifically for soldiers wounded during the war.

The park features tennis courts, children's playgrounds, picnic areas, and multiple entrance gates along Barbourne Road for public access.

Field Marshal John French declared at the park's opening that the 2nd Worcesters' actions at the Battle of Gheluvelt preserved the British Empire.
