Abbey Park is a public park in Leicester, England, through which the River Soar flows.
The park contains the remains of the 12th century Leicester Abbey that was dissolved by Henry VIII, and the grave of the troublesome Cardinal Wolsey. The Cardinal died there having been recalled by the King and thus saved Henry the trouble of having him executed.
The ruins of the 17th century Cavendish House, home of William Cavendish, 1st Earl of Devonshire are also in the park.
