πŸ‘πŸ‘ I'm a bit concerned at this being described as an 'Historical landmark'. I attended the event it commemorates! Oh, right, I'm old! 😊 😊

    The centre of Sutton Park National Nature Reserve! This stone commemorates the world scout jamboree held in Sutton Coldfield. The scouts camped on what is now called the β€˜Arena Field’ accessible from Streetly Gate and Boldmere Gate.

    My recent visit bought back memories of my visits to this place. We did a nice walk down to the red road route and then straight down to the lake side. Definitely a must go on a day with sunshine that makes it an even better experience. Huge park great atmosphere good too see lots of families and dog walkers.

πŸ‘ Smaller in scale than London, but there are good shops and establishments. Local landmarks include a stone pagoda, donated by a prominent local Chinese business as well as Chinese architectural flourishes around the Arcadian and surrounding area. It's nice enough.
