Farndon Park was a cricket ground in Clive, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

Hawke's Bay played four first-class matches at Farndon Park. Three of those came in 1892, against Taranaki, Wellington and Otago. The fourth came four years later when the touring Queensland side visited.[1] Cricket is no longer played at the park.

The Otago Witness reporter in 1892 described the ground as "a perfect likeness of a good English private ground".[2]
