    This is my garden, no lawn but fourteen trees and still a lot of work and a small summerhouse to sit and have a cup of tea.

    Birmingham Open Air Schools - Cropwood, Hunter's Hill, Marsh Hill and Skilts (excl. Haseley Hall and Uffculme)

    There is a book called ‘A Breath of Fresh Air’ it is all about the open air schools that were run by Birmingham Council, including Cropwood and Hunters Hill, it is quite expensive to buy but you can get it from your local library. Here is a photo of Cropwood.
