Mina Road Park, formerly Hunt's Pleasure Ground, is a public park in the St Werburghs district of Bristol, England. It was laid out in the late 19th century on land donated to the city by local benefactor William Hunt, and opened in 1886 as part of the expansion of Bristol's municipal recreation grounds. The park occupies low-lying ground beside the Horfield Brook (a tributary of the River Frome), with planting and paths arranged to create a sheltered riverside open space; the original Victorian layout also included an ornamental lake, later removed. It is the site of a Grade II listed Victorian cast-iron urinal.
