THREE green spaces in North Solihull have received the coveted Green Flag Award.
Babbs Mill Recreation Ground (pictured above), Meriden Park and Woodlands Cemetery are among 14 sites in the borough to meet the criteria.
Woodlands, on the road between Chelmsley Wood and Coleshill, qualified for the Green Flag for the first time this year.
The scheme, run by Keep Britain Tidy, is now in its 20th year and recognises Britain's best parks and open spaces - considering criteria including cleanliness, greenery and community involvement.
Paul Todd, awards scheme organiser, said: "All the flags flying this year are a testament to the efforts of the thousands of men and women, both staff and volunteers, who work tirelessly to maintain the high standards demanded by the Green Flag Award."
This year more than 1,600 sites around the UK made the grade.
