About Solihull - show infohide info
Solihull is a town in the West Midlands, with a population of 94,753 inhabitants. It is part of the West Midlands Conurbation, and is located to the south east of Birmingham. The name solihull is thought to come from the a 'miry or muddy', or soily hill. The medieval parish church s built on red marl, which turns to sticky mud in wet weather. The town was originally an important market town, and was also a coaching stop. The town is notable for its historic Tudor architecture, as well as the Church of St Alphege which dates from a similar era. The industrial revolution passed Solihull by, which remained a small market town for many years; in 1901 its population was just over 7,500. However, by the 1960's the population of the town was over 100,000 as a result of overspill from nearby Birmingham. Since then the population has decreased slightly, however Solihull remains largely a dormitory town for Birmingham. Today the town boasts a refurbished 1960's shopping centre, a number of parks covering over 130 acres, sports centres, an ice rink and roller skating rink.
