Ashmore Park is a large housing estate which was part of Wednesfield, Staffordshire, England. It is now in the city of Wolverhampton, West Midlands. It forms most of the Wednesfield North ward of Wolverhampton City Council. ==Places of interest== At the heart of the estate is a large green park consisting of a children's play area and multiple sports facilities which include a skate park, all weather multi sports pitch BMX track and bowls green. The park is also home to the Wednesfield Aces and Wednesfield Dragons speedway teams. This park was built on a slag heap, the remains of mining in the area. A good percentage of the estate was built before this land was reclaimed so the Estate was not named after the park. There are two main shopping areas, known locally as the 'top' and 'bottom' shops due to their geographic location. Both precincts house a mix of local and independent businesses. The 'bottom shops' underwent an extensive facelift during the early 2000s that included work to preserve the historic moat site.〔http://www.historywebsite.co.uk/listed/localist/ashmore.htm〕 In 2014 the estate's Library, Community Centre and Youth Club moved to a purpose built community hub on the site of the old Youth Club. In light of the 2013/14 funding cuts The Hub at Ashmore Park is run by volunteers with support of Wolverhampton City Council staff for library services. The estate has three churches, St Alban's Church (C of E), Corpus Christi Church (R.C.) and a Baptist church, all three are on Griffiths Drive - the circular road that encompasses much of the estate. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ashmore Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
