It is identified by Birmingham City Council as a "green corridor".[1] HistoryThe park is named after the topographical name of the nearby area; referring to either "bleak hills" or "black hills". Like the origin of Blakesley Hall in Yardley,[2] three Old English words could provide the root of the word "Bleak" – one meaning "black", one meaning "to shine", and one meaning "shining, pale, or bleak".[3] The area was first recorded as Blakhilles in 1461.[2] RenovationIn 2008, the park underwent a £100,000 transformation to remove graffiti and litter and to install sports pitches.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.birmingham.gov.uk/cs/Satellite?blobcol=urldata&blobheader=application%2Fpdf&blobheadername1=Content-Disposition&blobheadervalue1=attachment%3B+filename%3D689148Erdington+Ward+Open+Space+Plan.pdf&blobkey=id&blobtable=MungoBlobs&blobwhere=1223403486116&ssbinary=true|title=Erdington Ward Open Space Plan|date=12 May 2005|work=Leisure and Tourism|publisher=Birmingham City Council|accessdate=26 February 2010}} {{Birmingham parks}}{{WestMidlands-geo-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://billdargue.jimdo.com/placenames-gazetteer-a-to-y/places-b/bleak-hills/|title=Bleak Hill/s|last=Dargue|first=William|date=13 September 2008|work=A History of Birmingham Places and Placenames|accessdate=26 February 2010}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://billdargue.jimdo.com/placenames-gazetteer-a-to-y/places-b/blakesley/|title=Blakesley Hall|last=Dargue|first=William|date=13 September 2008|work=A History of Birmingham Places and Placenames|accessdate=26 February 2010}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.birminghammail.net/what-is-on-in-birmingham/birmingham-days-out/2008/02/29/in-the-bleak-midwinter-motorbike-made-moan-97319-20541018/|title=In the Bleak Midwinter, Motorbike Made Moan |last=Young|first=Graham|date=29 February 2008|work=Birmingham Mail|publisher=Trinity Mirror|accessdate=26 February 2010}} 2 : Parks and open spaces in Birmingham, West Midlands|Erdington |
