Swanshurst Park, Urban park in Kings Heath, Birmingham, England
The park features Moseley New Pool, walking paths, woodlands, and natural grasslands that support local wildlife throughout its extensive grounds.
The land transformed from common grazing grounds to a public park in 1922 when Birmingham City Council acquired the area from Ivyhouse Farm.
The Friends of Swanshurst Park group organizes community activities, including litter collection events and educational programs about nature for local schools.
Visitors can access the park through entrances on Yardley Wood Road and Swanshurst Lane, with a small car park available for vehicles.
Moseley New Pool, created in 1759 by Henry Giles, serves as both a fishing location and a natural habitat for numerous water birds.
