About Handsworth
- Soho House in Handsworth was the home of Matthew Boulton, the industrialist who partnered with James Watt to manufacture steam engines at the nearby Soho Manufactory. The house was the meeting place of the Lunar Society — a group of Enlightenment thinkers including Erasmus Darwin, Joseph Priestley, and Josiah Wedgwood — and is now a museum managed by Birmingham Museums Trust.
- Handsworth Park, opened in 1888, is one of the finest Victorian parks in Birmingham, with a boating lake, a bandstand, and formal gardens. The park was the site of the Handsworth riots of 1985, one of the most significant civil disturbances in British history, which led to major changes in policing and community relations in the city.
