Shirley Park, Solihull - A wonderful open space!

Shirley Park is situated in Shirley, Solihull on the Stratford Road.


Shirley Park is located between the Stratford Road (the high street in Shirley Town Centre) and Hurdis Road in Shirley, Solihull.

Originally farmland, the landscaping of Shirley Park has wonderful ornamental gardens and walkways which takes you through journeys through the park. Shirley Park reopened in June 2014 following £600,000 of improvement work.

When Parkgate Shirley was completed in 2014, there was a new side entrance, plus a new war memorial installed.
