Victoria Park is a public park located just to the north of Portsmouth Guildhall, adjacent to Portsmouth and Southsea railway station and close to the city centre in Portsmouth, Hampshire. It was officially opened on 25 May 1878 and was the first public park to be opened in Portsmouth. It was designed by Alexander McKenzie. The land had previously been the site of part of Portsmouth's defensive ramparts. It has a total area of around 15 acres (61,000 m2) and is planted with trees, shrubs and flowers. The centre of the park features an enclosed area which houses animals such as birds, rabbits and guinea pigs. The park has a brick and rubble lodge. A second lodge didn't survive to the present day.
