Village appeal in Kings Norton

Lying to the south of Birmingham city centre, leafy Kings Norton has a village feel to it, with The Green surrounded by historic buildings, including St Nicolas' Church. Various events are held on The Green each year, including a monthly farmers' market and the mop fair, which dates back to 1616. It was where people went to look for employment, but today has stalls, fairground rides and a traditional ox roast.

The local nature reserve is a haven for wildlife, while the canals provide a picturesque backdrop for invigorating walks.
