Yeoman Hill Park is situated just outside the boundary of the Mansfield Woodhouse Conservation Area. The bandstand is described as 'a large 1930s bandstand, built of concrete in an organic form. It has concrete fins to the rear and concrete steps to both sides. To the rear of the brick plinth are circular portholes. The architect and exact date of construction are unknown.' The plinth is fronted in red brick. The war memorial in Yeoman Hill Park, to the north-east of the bandstand, was constructed in 1923 and is listed at Grade II.
Bandstands began to appear in public parks in the 1860s, and by the end of the 19th Century few parks lacked one. Most were probably purchased from commercial manufacturers, and cast iron was the most popular material.
There are three listed 20th Century bandstands in Nottinghamshire, all in Nottingham; the bandstand to the east of the Castle Museum, dated c.1900; the bandstand at the Arboretum, c1907 (both of wooden construction with glazing); and the Victoria Embankment bandstand of 1937. All three are listed at Grade II.
The Yeoman Hill Park bandstand conforms to a standard bandstand design of the period, with a simple covered platform with open sides. The architect of the bandstand is unknown, and Yeoman Hill Park is not registered. (1)
