They used to have a smashing flower display on a raised bank at the front of the Park - which always used to look really colourful as you went past on the 11 bus up by the junction of Dudley Rd and (the old) Winson Green Road junction. (c1950-1960s's). Its just flat now - never mind.

Does anyone remember the Bonfire Nights there, I went as a Kid and then took my own children there.
