Robin Hood Cemetery in Streetsbrook Road, Solihull, opened in 1917 and closed for new grave burials in 1992, when Widney Manor Cemetery replaced it as the Solihull's principal cemetery. In the Robin Hood Cemetery is the Robin Hood Crematorium. Administratively the two form a unit known as Robin Hood Cemetery and Crematorium.
