Grove Park
Grove Park is a small public park in Harborne, Birmingham. It covers around four acres and provides a green space for local residents to enjoy. The park was originally part of the grounds of The Grove, a historic house that was demolished in the 1960s. The land was later acquired by Birmingham City Council and opened as a public park.
The park features open grassy areas, mature trees, and pathways for walking. It is a popular spot for dog walkers, families, and those looking for a quiet place to relax. There is a small play area for children, and benches are placed throughout for visitors to sit and enjoy the surroundings.
Grove Park is well-maintained and provides a peaceful retreat within Harborne. While relatively small compared to other parks in Birmingham, it remains an important green space for the local community.
