	Sutton Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sutton Park, in Sutton Coldfield, United Kingdom, is reputedly the largest urban park in Europe; certainly it is larger than the Phoenix Park in Dublin which makes a similar claim.
		The Park covers 2,400 acres (9.7 km²), with a mix of heathland, wetlands and marshes, seven lakes, extensive ancient woodlands (covering approximately a quarter of the Park), several restaurants, a private 18-hole golf course on its western edge and a municipal golf course to the south, a donkey sanctuary, children's playgrounds and a visitors' centre.
		Road speed limits through the park have been reduced twice, from 30mph to a generally respected 20mph in the 1980s, and recently (2004) to 5mph, although the practical effects of the 5mph limit remain to be noted.
