Cofton Park, Public park in south Birmingham, England
The 135-acre grounds of Cofton Park contain rolling fields, open grassland, and numerous oak and ash trees across sloping terrain.
Birmingham City Council purchased the parkland in 1933 from William Walter Hinde's trustees for £10,640, preserving it for public recreation.
In September 2010, Pope Benedict XVI celebrated a mass at Cofton Park attended by 51,626 people during Cardinal Newman's canonization ceremony.
The park features multiple entrances from Lowhill Lane, Lickey Road, Elliot Gardens, and Ten Ashes Lane, with parking facilities at different locations.
Cofton Park houses Birmingham's municipal plant nursery, which supplies bedding plants and seasonal displays for parks throughout the entire city.
