Beacon Park, Lichfield: skatepark
Although designed for skateboards, nearly everyone using the facility was on scooters, which seem to have something of a revival at present.
Beacon Park, Lichfield

The main park of the city, just west of the historic centre, was developed from 1859 to 1943, and covers about 70 acres (28 hectares). It includes sports facilities (football pitches, tennis courts, bowling green, skate park and par 3 golf course) as well as formal gardens, cafe, toilets, a 'discovery hub', wooded areas and a small lake. The park underwent extensive renovation in 2010/11.
