Sutton Park, National Nature Reserve in Birmingham, England
Sutton Park encompasses 2,400 acres of woodlands, heathlands, wetlands, and seven lakes that support numerous native plant and animal species.
The land served as a Royal Forest for Anglo Saxon kings of Mercia in the 9th century before King Henry VIII granted it to Sutton Coldfield residents in 1528.
The park hosted the 9th World Scout Jamboree in 1957, gathering scouts from multiple countries and leaving a commemorative stone pillar on site.
Visitors can access the park daily from 9 AM, with closing times varying seasonally from 5 PM in winter to 10 PM during summer months.
Wild ponies and cattle freely graze throughout the park grounds, maintaining the natural biodiversity of this urban nature reserve.
