Rookery
House is situated in Rookery Park (formerly known as
Birches Green), Erdington, which enjoys a large number
of visitors daily. The park includes tennis courts,
two play areas for young and older children, a formal
Italian sunken garden and a large open area with a football
pitch in the winter months. The park is maintained by
staff who use offices within Rookery House itself and
it has already been agreed that BCC will continue to
rent offices in the house whilst the restoration process
is proceeding.
The area around the house has
significant archaeological interest.
