Kay Park, Urban park in Kilmarnock, Scotland
Kay Park extends over 30 acres of land with green spaces, walking paths, and a central loch surrounded by maintained recreational areas.
The park opened in August 1879, funded by Alexander Kay's bequest, reflecting the Victorian period's emphasis on creating public green spaces.
The Burns Monument Centre within the park contains research facilities, marriage services, and a collection of historical documents about Robert Burns.
Visitors can access the park throughout the year to use walking paths, picnic areas, and explore the Burns Monument Centre's genealogical resources.
A Corinthian column near the entrance commemorates the parliamentary reformers who organized protests in this location during 1816.
