Allan Park is a small, 6 hectare park situated on the south side of the suburban village of Cults.

The park was donated by the local community to commemorate Queen Victoria's long reign. It contains a large overgrown bog which was formerly a skating rink. There is also equipment for small children to amuse themselves. They include a slide, swings and a jungle gym.

Allan Park has also been home to Cults Cricket Club since 1893 and matches are often played there during the summer months. In the off season, the cricket pitch is segregated from the surrounding pitch with wooden trestles to prevent damage to the grass.

A large football pitch, with two full sized goals is also contained within Allan Park. The goalmouths have recently been filled with sand and will be re-turfed in June 2008.
