Birchwood
Forest Park
Birchwood
Forest Park is the name given to all the green areas
throughout Birchwood. The town is made up of the three
villages - Gorse Covert, Oakwood and Locking Stumps,
and the villages and open spaces are all linked by a
comprehensive network of footpaths, which in turn link
the parkland to the surrounding countryside.
There
is also a local Tennis Centre and Community Sports Arena
which is situated between the Birchwood Shopping Mall
and the Birchwood High School.
The
Spectrum Arena is not utilized as it should be these
days, but is used occasionally by film and television
companies. The Parole Officer was filmed here recently.
Birchwood
also has an excellent library, which is situated adjacent
to the High School.
