Hillfield Park and Widney Woods

Image: © Robin Jones Taken: 30 Jan 2008

Hillfield Park, with the woodland correctly named Parish Poles, and known locally as Widney Woods, in the background. Now public open space, it was until the 1970s used as a landfill site for Solihull's domestic waste. A tributary of the Cran Brook lies buried several feet below.
