Old Park Farm is a residential area of Dudley, West Midlands (formerly Worcestershire and Staffordshire), England. It was developed in the early 1950s by Dudley County Borough council as a council housing estate in the extreme west of the town near the border with Sedgley (which the land on the estate had been part of until 1926) on rural land next to the Wren's Nest estate that had been built in the 1930s. Several private houses were built on the estate as well. The estate consists of 'The Greens' (roads named after types of trees e.g. Beech Green, Ash Green). It was named after Old Park Farm which sat at the top of the estate on the site where the Pub existed (now newer housing) hence the name 'Old Park' Farm Estate. Sycamore Green Primary School served the estate for some 50 years until its closure in 2006. Now in 2012 the school building still remains and what was the school field has now been converted into a Play Center for children in the area. Since 2000 a health centre has also served the estate.
