Locke Park is a 47-acre public open space and one of the largest outdoor green spaces in the Borough of Barnsley, South Yorkshire, England.

Phoebe gave the original 17 acres, and the layout was undertaken by Locke's business partner, John Edward Errington. The park was extended in 1874, when Phoebe Locke's sister, Sarah McCreery donated a further 21 acres in memory of her sister, who had died in 1866. There were further donations and additions of land to bring the park up to its current 47 acres.
