The Kensington Oval, formerly known as the South Dunedin Recreation Ground, is a park and sports ground in Kensington, Dunedin, New Zealand.[1] It is also known as just The Oval, although this name has become less common in recent years due to the potential confusion with the University Oval in the north of the city.[2]
