Our Estate and our Heritage on our doorstep
Weoley Castle, Alwold Road, Birmingham, West Midlands, B29 5RX
Weoley Castle Ruins is an ancient monument protected by law. It is surrounded by a 1930’s municipal housing estate modelled on the nearby Bournville. A ‘Garden Cities’ inspired estate. The disused canal has a fascinating history.
Light refreshments included.
This is a pushchair friendly walk around the perimeter of the ruins and beyond with a non-alcoholic glass of elderberry fizz, nibbles and juices for the children on the return journey.
Part of the walk will be along a main road, Alwold Road. There are slight slopes and it could be a little muddy under foot. There will be four or five steps but electric wheelchairs can retrace a route to rejoin the group.
