About Baggeridge Country Park

Baggeridge Country Park is situated inside the South Staffordshire area of Staffordshire, England. Its passageway is on the A463 only west of Gospel End, a little Staffordshire town just past the fringes of the Wolverhampton and the Metropolitan Borough of Dudley. Baggeridge was initially possessed by the Earls of Dudley as a component of the Himley Estate and comprised of little homesteads and antiquated forest alongside the parkland of Himley Park. It was later arranged by Lancelot "Ability" Brown in the 18th century; the scene is still to a great extent unaltered from the southern limit up to the Wishing Pools.

The entire site stayed as finished by Brown until the point when 1902 when work started to mine the northern half when pit shafts were sunk and a cast mining task started. The mine was then nationalized in 1947 and shut down on 1 March 1968 by which time it was the last profound coal mine in the neighborhood. In 1970 the western, focal, southern and eastern territories were assigned a Country Park with full recovery being finished on 12 January 1981. The north eastern zone progressed toward becoming Baggeridge Brick. It was authoritatively opened on 17 June 1983 by Princess Anne.
