Red House Park

The park features two lakes, and an obelisk in memory of Princess Charlotte.

Within the park is The Red House, a country house built in the 1841 for the then Liberal MP for Walsall, Robert Wellbeloved Scott, and stood in his 27-acre (11 ha) estate.

[1] Previously used as a convalescent home, the house was subsequently owned by Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council and for a while was leased to the British Trust for Conservation Volunteers.

[2] The park includes an obelisk, in memory of Princess Charlotte.

[5] The Park is also home to two small tunnel like structures known locally, and referred to on maps as,[citation needed] Hermit's Cave.
