Another visit to Beacon Hill at the Lickey Hills

Only really had time for one park walk during the second lockdown (before I had to go back to work in the middle of November 2020). We went to Beacon Hill a the Lickey Hills Country Park (by car). After getting the skyline view updates, we walked into the woods, down and around the muddy paths. Got as far as a stream before going back up. The woods were covered in leaves and was quite wet.

Another visit to Beacon Hill at the Lickey Hills





Only really had time for one park walk during the second lockdown (before I had to go back to work in the middle of November 2020). We went to Beacon Hill a the Lickey Hills Country Park (by car). After getting the skyline view updates, we walked into the woods, down and around the muddy paths. Got as far as a stream before going back up. The woods were covered in leaves and was quite wet.


Beacon Hill into the woods with mud

The weather in November 2020, hasn't been great. We were in lockdown again for 4 weeks. So couldn't go far unless going in the car. And I wouldn't go back to work in the City Centre until the middle of the month (by which time the weather had improved a bit).

Before then we went in the car to Beacon Hill at the Lickey Hills Country Park on the 10th November 2020. Was a bit cloudy. First priority was to get updates of the skyline. Then we had a bit of a walk down the hill into the woods. Some paths were quite muddy and wet, so shoes and jeans got covered in the muck.

Some signposts pointed to the Rose & Crown and Monument Lane. Although we ended up not getting close to either of those (apart from the road with the stream).

 

Birmingham Skyline, November 2020

First up checking out the Birmingham Skyline. New to the skyline is 103 Colmore Row and The Mercian.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Bham skyline Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

As well as The Bank Tower's 1 & 2.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Bham skyline Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (2).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

You can see why they call Birmingham the City of trees!

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Bham skyline Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (3).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

If you zoom in a bit, you can see Old Joe at the University of Birmingham on the skyline with The Sentinels and the Beetham Tower.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Old Joe Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Zooming in from Beacon Hill to see 103 Colmore Row to the left of The Cube.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/103 Colmore Row Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

103 Colmore Row was seen behind Chamberlain Tower at The Vale Village (University of Birmingham).

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/103 Colmore Row Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (2).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

The zoom in to The Mercian finds it in front of The BT Tower. The Bank Towers's 1 & 2 seen to the left.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill skyline" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/The Mercian Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

You also have the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham and Park Regis Birmingham Hotel in this view.

Beacon Hill Toposcope

All my main Toposcope photos were taken back during my earlier May 2013 visit so wasn't going to take any new shots of it. But took this pair after the muddy walk down and around the woods as we headed back to the car park.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill Toposcope" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill Toposcope LHCP (Nov 2020) (1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Was good to be back at the top of the hill, after getting a bit lost around the woods as you will see below. Nice to see the Toposcope again!

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill Toposcope" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill Toposcope LHCP (Nov 2020) (2).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Around the woods in the mud

At first the path in the woods close to the top of the hill looked quite dry.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (1).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

There was leaves all over the ground below the trees.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (2).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

The further you got in, the more autumnal it looked, but off the paths.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (3).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Up to the fingerpost. Rose & Crown to the left, Monument Lane to the right.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (4).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Behind the fingerpost, the hill going down. Don't walk down this bit!

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (5).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

We first headed towards the Rose & Crown. But the path got muddy the further you went down, so we went back up.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (6).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Now heading in the direction of Monument Lane, some trees still have leaves on in yellows and greens.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (7).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Still a bit muddy as we went down the hill.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (8).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Getting further down and there was a lot of leaves on the path.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (9).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Some green fields nearby.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (10).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

End of this path near the steps, was very muddy with a puddle, but found another way around.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (11).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

This way seemed less muddy down to the stream.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (12).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

The stream near the road. I think this was closer to Rose Hill, but we didn't head that way.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (13).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Other side of the stream, lined with rocks. We headed this way.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (14).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Heading up a bit, this path looked dry.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (15).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Saw a bridge over the stream and steps, so headed up this short cut to get back up to the Toposcope.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (16).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Leaves on the path as we went back up.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (17).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Back on the main path back up to the top of the hill.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (18).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Not far now as there was daylight behind the trees.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (19).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Back up at the top with the field at the top of Beacon Hill.

dndimg alt="Beacon Hill woods" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Beacon Hill LHCP (Nov 2020) (20).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

12 must visit parks in Birmingham in 2021





There is literally hundreds of parks in Birmingham, but here is a quick look at 12 parks you could visit in 2021 at any time of the year for a walk, cycle, or taking your dog for a walk etc. From the well known parks such as Kings Heath Park and Cannon Hill Park, to the less well known such as Kings Norton Park and Manor Farm Park. So many to choose from.


Click the links below to go to the projects and view the posts. All parks are reachable by cycle or bus. Some by train and tram. Many of these parks used to be country estates before being acquired by the Council from the late 19th or early 20th Century.

 

Cannon Hill Park

Located between Moseley and Edgbaston on Edgbaston Road and Russell Road. There is also entrances from the Pershore Road. Cannon Hill Park opened to the public back in 1873, on land donated by Louisa Ryland. It is probably the most popular park in Birmingham with lakes, playgrounds and a fun fair. The Midlands Art Centre is also based here. Various memorials are located in this famous park.

Bus routes: 1, 1A, 35, 45 or 47.

dndimg alt="Cannon Hill Park" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Boating Lake Cannon Hill Park (May 2020) (4).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

 

Kings Heath Park

Probably the second most popular park in Birmingham is Kings Heath Park. Located on Vicarage Road and Avenue Road in Kings Heath. The park was home to the TV Garden, and there is a Tea Room located in a house built in 1832 for an MP, William Congreve Russell. The land and house later ended up in the Cartland family in 1880, and they sold it in 1900s. Eventually the local council took control, before Kings Heath became a part of Birmingham in 1911. Today there is several play areas in the park, plus a couple of ponds.

Bus routes: 11A, 11C, 27 or 76.

dndimg alt="Kings Heath Park" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Indian summer KHP (Sept 2020) (7).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

 

Highbury Park

Located between Kings Heath and Moseley, with one entrance near the Kings Heath High Street. It was the estate of Joseph Chamberlain who lived at Highbury Hall until his death in 1914. Highbury Park also has entrances on Moor Green Lane, and one near a gatehouse close to Yew Tree Lane. From Dad's Lane and Shutlock Lane, there is a back entrance to the park also leading to a car park. The park opened to the public in 1930. The park has a couple of ponds that you can see.

Bus routes: 27, 35, 50 or 76.

Trains: A new Kings Heath Station could open in the future by 2022 (the original station closed in 1941).

dndimg alt="Highbury Park" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Highbury Park (May 2020) (2).jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

 

Kings Norton Park

This park is located down the Pershore Road South in Kings Norton. It was opened to the public in 1924. There is a car park located on Westhill Road. The River Rea flows through the park, although you can't see it. The park features a play area near the Westhill Road entrance, and a skate park. Not too far from the old Kings Norton Village. Part of the Rea Valley Route, and on the National Cycle Network route no 5.

Bus routes: 18, 19, 45, 47 and 49.

Handsworth Park

This park is located between Hamstead Road and Hinstock Road in Handsworth. Also with entrances on Holly Road and Grove Road. Nearby is the Church of St Mary, where James Watt and Matthew Boulton are buried. Handsworth Park has at least two lakes. A railway line crosses half way through the park (it was the site of Handsworth Wood Station until 1942). Originally known as Victoria Park, it opened to the public in the 1880s. A sculpture was installed in the park called SS Journey by Luke Perry.

Grove Park

This park is located on Harborne Park Road in Harborne. Grove Park has been a public park in Birmingham since 1963. The southern end of the park is on Mill Farm Road towards the Kenrick Centre. Historically the park was the grounds of The Grove, which was an 18th century Georgian house. One of Birmingham's first MP's Thomas Attwood lived at The Grove from 1823 to 1846. The house was later rebuilt for another Birmingham MP, William Kenrick in 1877-78. He died there in 1919. His son Alderman W. Byng Kenrick donated the estate to the City (he died in 1962). The house was demolished by Birmingham City Council in 1963. The park has a play area and a lake.

Bus routes: 10S, 11A, 11C or 76.

Cotteridge Park: the park near the Cross City Line

Getting off the 11C bus on the Pershore Road in Cotteridge. I usually head up Breedon Road past Cotteridge Junior & Infant School. Crossing into the park over the Cross City Line. There is many paths to take. Last couple of times I ended up at Bournville Station. The bridge over the railway still has the mural painted in 2012.

Cotteridge Park: the park near the Cross City Line





Getting off the 11C bus on the Pershore Road in Cotteridge. I usually head up Breedon Road past Cotteridge Junior & Infant School. Crossing into the park over the Cross City Line. There is many paths to take. Last couple of times I ended up at Bournville Station. The bridge over the railway still has the mural painted in 2012.


Cotteridge Park dates to the Victorian period. The park is near Franklin Road and not far from Bournville. One way into the park is over the railway bridge that you can cross from Breedon Road. The No 11 Outer Circle bus route (11A and 11C) passes nearby on the Pershore Road and Linden Road. The Friends of Cotteridge Park  was established in 1997 and they celebrated their 20th anniversary in 2017.

 

December 2013

Approaching the bridge from Breedon Road. Vehicles can't go over it so there are bollards there.

The view from the bridge crossing the Cross City line. A pair of West Midlands Railway Class 323 trains passing each other. By this point the electrification to Bromsgrove was complete and you can get electric trains all the way there on the Cross City Line.

September 2019

Heading over the bridge from Breedon Road again. There is this view of the skyline towards Five Ways / Broad Street. From Park Regis Birmingham to The Bank Tower Two. Didn't see a train until I entered the park again.

dndimg alt="Cotteridge Park" dndsrc="../uploadedfiles/Cotteridge Park (Sept 2019) (1) .jpg" style="width: 100%;" />

Took a different path this time. Saw a West Midlands Railway Class 323 train passing by. It wouldn't be long before I found myself at Bournville Station yet again.

Or a wood.
