It is round the corner from Shirley Station. From this park, you can walk through the Aqueduct Road Meadow. Which is a Local Wildlife Site. If you continue past Colebrook Road, and up Nethercote Gardens, you can cross into the Shire Country Park in Birmingham over some stepping stones (Yardley Wood area).
