The park was probably created from Rossington Common at the time of the parliamentary enclosure in 1771. A house was built on Shooters Hill. The estate was sold in 1838 and again in 1938. In the late 19th century the original house was demolished and the current Rossington Hall was built. The hall is currently reused as a special school and a training college for the Horse Racing trade. Although some of the land is used currently for agricultural purposes, overall the character of landscaped park is still prevalent. Legibility of the former common landscape is invisible.
