Pearson Park, originally known as the People's Park is a park in the west of Kingston upon Hull, England. It is situated about 1 mile (1.5 km) north-west of the city centre of Hull with its main entrance on Beverley Road and its western boundary adjoining Princes Avenue.[1]

The park was established in 1862 through the gift of land by Zachariah Pearson, and was the first public park in the city.
