  • WYLDE GREEN HOUSE, SUTTON COLDFIELD a Short History of This Once Prominent House
    WYLDE GREEN HOUSE, SUTTON COLDFIELD A short history of this once prominent house By Alan Howells The Wylde Green district, south of the town, between Sutton Coldfield and Erdington, had been an agricultural and farming area since the middle ages. Earliest records of the area date from the fourteenth century. For over four hundred years the major land owners and farmers were the Sedgewick family. They lived in the farmhouse of the large Wylde Green Farm situated east of the Birmingham Road and south of Wylde Green Road (originally Walmley Road). Most of the farm is now occupied by Walmley Golf Club. The farmhouse was a large Tudor residence rebuilt in 1639 using bricks manufactures by han from local clay. The farm was large, the fourth wealthiest estate in Sutton after Moor Hall, New Hall and the estate of the Rector of Sutton. The family was prominent in town affairs, various Sedgwicks holding the office of Warden. Map of Sutton Coldfield in the eighteenth century, based on Yates’ 1789 map of Warwickshire. The 1600s and the first Wylde Green House. The farm was being managed and run by tenant farmers living in the farmhouse, and the Sedgewicks decided to have another house built on part of their land close to the green at Wylde Green. It stood at the junction of Wylde Green Road and Birmingham Road with easy access to the road network; this was the first Wylde Green House. No details of this house have been found except for a plan of its location. It is recorded in the Hearth Tax returns for Sutton Coldfield in the 1670s as having one hearth, whereas the large farmhouse was taxed on six hearths.

  • Article 1 : the Relief of Sutton's Poor, Part II
    THE RELIEF OF SUTTON'S POOR, PART II: Sutton and the Aston Board of Guardians of the Poor BY MIKE HINSON In a previous article, published in the Research Group's Proceedings, Vol 4: Spring 1997, the present author described the relief of Sutton's poor under the Old Poor Law, 1601—1836. The account is continued in this article which describes the relief of Sutton's poor during the early years of the New Poor Law, enacted in 1836. Widespread Distrust The 1601 Poor Law Act (43 Elizabeth I), commonly known as the Old Poor Law, relied on the parish as a unit of government and upon unpaid non—professional administrators. This resulted in the creation of a vast but rather inefficient system of social welfare, roughly adapted to the requirements of the society of the day, and based on close relationships within the village and hamlet (1). Overall, there was an absence of any consistent model of practice. This resulted in considerable geographical variation in the interpretation and implementation of the legislation. In Warwickshire, disputes within and between parishes were frequently sorted out by the Justices of the Peace at Quarter Sessions. A Commission of Enquiry established by the government carried out its work during 1832 and 1833. Having studied local systems in operation, its main proposals and recommendations were: - That there should be national uniformity in the treatment of each class of paupers, so that every applicant of any class might receive identical treatment wherever he or she might reside. - Outdoor relief to the able—bodied and their families should be abolished.

  • SATURDAY 31St OCTOBER Buildbase FA Trophy Rushall Olympic (A)
    Good evening and a very warm welcome to the players, officials and supporters of Rushall Olympic, we do hope you enjoy your short stay with us before having a safe journey home. Rushall have made a solid start to this season’s campaign suffering only one defeat in their first 7 league games. A competitive club that are always in and around the playoffs, they will be looking to continue that form. Managed by former Barwell players, Liam Macdonald and Nick Green, they will have done their homework on us, so as ever we will be expecting a tough encounter. A well run club from top to bottom and in their second year with an artificial pitch the club is a good role model for non-league football. Both clubs know that this encounter between us will take place again at Rushall on Saturday in the Buildbase FA Trophy, it’s ironic how these consecutive fixtures seem to happen. We finally got our first win against Nuneaton Borough, which has brought a lot of relief to all connected with the club. I’m sure that will bring a lot of confidence, let’s hope we can kick on from here and get back into the mix on the league front. Finally for tonight, I’m pleased to announce that Jason Ashby owner of UK Flooring Direct has agreed to extend his sponsorship for a further 3 years with the club. He has also made a five figure donation to our fundraising effort for our 3G pitch project. If you read this Jason, all of us at Barwell thank you for your commitment once again and wish you, your family and your business all the best for the future.

  • Two Remarkable Tenants – Midland Lodge
    1 Midland Lodge, Sutton Park The profiles of two remarkable tenants and their association with the foundation of The Vesey Club in Sutton Coldfield Roy Billingham This late Victorian cottage was designed by Birmingham architect William Jenkins in 1879 in the Gothic Revival style for the Warden and Society of Sutton Coldfield. When completed in 1880 it was named New Lodge to complement the adjacent New Entrance to Sutton Park created by the Midland Railway Company the previous year. In the late 1880s, it was known as The Mayor’s Cottage when it was in the tenancy of Sutton’s first Mayor. When he gave up the tenancy in 1891 its name was changed to Midland Lodge in accord with the new entrance being called Midland Gate. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries Midland Lodge had two remarkable tenants. One was a well- known local businessman, political figure and photographer, while the other was a renowned plantsman. They were also founding members of the Vesey Club in 1888, a learned organisation that was elitist and to which membership was most keenly sought from far and wide. This essay aims to highlight the contribution that each of these three Midland Lodge in c.1910 [Photograph by Benjamin Stone] subjects made to the history of Midland Lodge as well as to Sutton Park and Sutton Coldfield. 1. Benjamin Stone 2. The Vesey Club 3. Alfred Wood 2 1. – John Benjamin Stone (1838-1914) who was tenant from 1886-91 Benjamin Stone (the name John was dropped early in his life), who became one of the councillors for the Wylde Green Ward of Sutton Coldfield in 1886, lived for almost forty years at The Grange, in Grange Road, Erdington, now the John Taylor Hospice.

  • 2037 Spatial Housing Strategy & Infrastructure Delivery
    SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE COUNCIL – LOCAL PLAN REVIEW – 2018 - 2037 SPATIAL HOUSING STRATEGY & INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY – OCTOBER 2019 LAND AT LANDYWOOD – GREAT WYRLEY KGL (HOLDINGS ) LTD: Mr C WALLACE & Mrs SNAPE 1. I refer to the above consultation and confirm that I act for the owners, as above, of the land identified on the attached plan . 2. Firstly, the approach in the Review which states that areas of safeguarded land will become housing land allocations, is welcomed and endorsed . In the context of my client’s land which is already allocated and safeguarded, this will enable a comprehensive scheme for these areas to come forward, consistent with the need to ensure public safety within the areas concerned. 3. However, my clients wish their land, as above, to be considered for future housing development either independently or, in association with the above land parcels, as part of an overall comprehensive scheme thereby providing the potential to incorporate employment and other uses, as appropriate, in a highly sustainable location. 4. The land parcels concerned which are owned by KGL (Holdings) Ltd., have previously been considered in the 2018 SHELAA (site refs. 136 and 137) and categorised as “potentially suitable”. 1 5. It is noted that the Green Belt Study 2019 (GBS) assesses the impact upon the green belt of development on the land east of Upper Landywood Lane now being promoted as “moderate” , with the following explanation: “The sub-parcel (S21A) makes a strong contribution to preventing sprawl of the large built-up area of Cannock/Great Wyrley and to preventing encroachment on the countryside, and a moderate contribution to maintaining the separation between the neighbouring towns of Great Wyrley and Bloxwich.
