Burslem Park, Victorian urban park in Stoke-on-Trent, England.
The park spans 9 hectares with formal gardens, winding paths, and a lake surrounded by a constructed Pulhamite rockery with an ornamental cascade.
Thomas H Mawson designed this park, which opened in 1894 on former industrial land that required substantial soil improvements to transform pit shafts and cinder heaps.
The park features terracotta architectural elements, including drinking fountains and balustrades, reflecting the region's strong connection to ceramics manufacturing.
Visitors can access the park through multiple entrances from Hamil Road, Park Road, and Moorland Road, with designated parking spaces near the lodge entrance.
The central cast iron bandstand, constructed in 2008, replaced an original pitch-pine structure that burned down in 2005.
