Padiham Memorial Park was officially opened in 1921 as a memorial to those from the town who lost their lives in the First World War.

The land was donated by Lord Shuttleworth and Thomas Clayton and partly funded by public subscription.

Also in the park is a memorial to several people from Padiham who lost their lives in the Spanish Air Disaster in 1970
