  • Character Appraisal Lickey
    Character Appraisal Lickey Just south of the Lickey Hills and running between Twatling Road and Old Birmingham Road is Lickey Square (formerly just The Square) which forms the south side of a triangle ( not a square!) with the north ends of Twatling Road and Old Birmingham Road. In recent years this triangle of land has seen a very large increase in back garden housing development. Virtually every spare piece of land has been built on with the exception of the churchyard extension and along with the Fairways estate and The Glen in Blackwell, Greenfield Avenue in Lickey Grange ward and Cofton Fields estate in Cofton the Lickey Square triangle has the highest density housing in our NDP area. Around and between the settlements are many hectares of meadow and pasture land. Some is being put to good use as pasture for dairy herds eg Yew Tree Farm on Brookhouse Road between Mearse Lane and Littleheath Lane where the former farmstead buildings have been converted to provide five homes whilst the land is used by a tenant dairy farmer. This is land which has great amenity value as green space between our increasingly high-density villages. Tenanted farmland at Yew Tree Farm, Brookhouse Road. ROSE HILL As you climb up Rose Hill from Cofton Hackett you enter the Parish of Lickey and the first building on the right is The Old Rose and Crown Hotel which was a former Coaching Inn at the foot of the Lickey hills Country Park. The Parish of Lickey is in the District of Bromsgrove in the county of Worcestershire.
