📍 Birmingham, West Midlands

★3.3(28 Google reviews)

A gated, enclosed play area with swings, slides, and a separate basketball court for older children. Equipment is dated and reviewers consistently call for renovation investment.

★★★★Featured review by Stacey Blackham

Nice secure gated play area with a slide and swings. There is a basketball area for older children.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with toddlers and young children who need a securely enclosed outdoor play space. The gating is the standout feature for parents of under-5s. Older children can use the basketball area. The site needs investment — manage expectations around equipment quality before visiting.

“Considering it's been 14 years and 4 months (according to the date labelled on the court goal), I believe the (broke) city council should renovate the play park by enhancing the court to a full size 4g football pitch with NBA-standard basketball court with chained nets and refurbishing the playground to an all-round interactive playground with more enthusiastic pieces of gym equipment. Not only will this (hopefully) attract more kids to play outside more, but also to improve this state of an area. But this is just my input ¯\_(ツ)_/¯”
