Birmingham Botanical Gardens

The 15 acre garden was designed by J C Loudon and opened in 1832 on land leased from Lord Calthorpe's estate. The gardens remain essentially unaltered retaining the characteristics of a Victorian park complete with bandstand. Today there are four glasshouses, a large lawn and some 7,000 different plants. There is also a small collection of exotic birds.
