Selly Oak Park, Urban park in Selly Oak district, Birmingham, England
The park extends across 30 acres of land with walking paths, grassy areas, a children's playground, and outdoor fitness equipment.
The parkland opened to the public in 1899 after the Gibbins family donated 11 acres of their land for community recreational purposes.
The Art, History and Nature Trail features information points and sculptures that highlight the natural environment and local heritage.
Multiple bus routes, including numbers 11, 76, and 84, provide access to the park via stops along Harborne Lane and Gibbins Road.
The park contains the preserved stump of the original Selly Oak tree, which stood until 1909 and gave the district its name.
