The White Park is a modern British breed of cattle. It was established in 1973 to include several herds or populations of colour-pointed white cattle – white-coated, with points of either red or black on the ears and feet. Such cattle have a long history in the British Isles, and the origins of some herds go back to the Middle Ages. In the twenty-first century it is an endangered breed, and in 2023 was listed as 'at risk' on the watchlist of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust. Two semi-feral populations of these cattle were later given separate breed status as the Chillingham Wild Cattle in Northumbria and the Vaynol herd from Gwynedd in North Wales, . In the United States it is known as the Ancient White Park; the American White Park is a different breed.
