Beach House Park, Worthing

Beach House Park is a formal garden in Worthing, a town and local government district in West Sussex, England.

[2][3] The south (Brighton Road) end of the park is planted with shrubs, flowers and trees, while the northern section is given over to bowling greens, tennis courts and associated buildings.

[11] The "Warrior Birds" memorial was promoted and commissioned by actress Nancy Price and members of the People's Theatre in London.

[9][12] Local sculptor Leslie Sharp started work on the memorial in 1949, and it was unveiled on 27 July 1951 by the Duke and Duchess of Hamilton.

[9][12] As originally designed, the memorial consisted of a circular mound planted with shrubs and a rockery with streams and pools of water, two boulders with carved wording, and two stone pigeons.

[12] The line A bird of the air shall carry the voice and that which hath wings shall tell the matter is a quote from the Book of Ecclesiastes in the Old Testament (Eccl 10:20).

[12] The stones, which were quarried in the Forest of Dean, were refurbished and repainted in 1999,[12] and Worthing Borough Council continues to maintain the memorial.

The north side of the park has bowling greens and pavilions.
