About this outing
Handsworth Park has two play areas near the Wellbeing Centre off Holly Road, with equipment sections for younger and older children. Its landscaped slopes, mature trees, ornamental bandstand and outdoor artworks make a varied short walk. The council describes well-defined, accessible paths and a 2km walking route. Main entrances are on Hamstead Road and Grove Lane; the leisure centre and its car park are off Holly Road. The council states that there are no public toilets on site, so plan a toilet stop separately. Take particular care with children near the park’s lakes.
