Join a great grandson of the first Park Keeper at Selly Oak Park, Birmingham, as he delves into the Park’s history. Discover why, when, and how the Park came to be. Re-live the days, a hundred years ago, when thousands thronged to the Park to relax, play and be entertained. The colour and excitement of the recreational events and activities are remarkable, and the images linger long. The care and community spirit of those with influence at the park still challenge us today.

Selly Oak Park, the first in the District, was special through more than a decade. These were its heydays – glorious days for which all can still be proud and thankful.
