A Home with History

Perry Hill Lane has a remarkable local story dating back to the early 20th century. Historical records show that in 1905, the land around Perry Hill was cultivated by the Steeples family, with the area being used as nursery land connected to the seed company Hunter & Co. The company operated a warehouse in Hockley and supplied seeds across the country.

The corner plot on Perry Hill Lane is also linked to Mitchell's & Butler's, with historical accounts recording that the land was retained as nursery grounds for many years. A memorial plaque on the front and side of the 1909 house commemorates employees of Mitchell's & Butler's and reflects the strong community heritage of the area.

Before the residential development of the 1930s, Perry Hill Lane was a semi-rural countryside setting known for its gardens, allotments, a stream, and even a pond used for horses, making this location a fascinating part of Oldbury's history.

Perry Hill Lane enjoys excellent access to local schools, shops, transport links, and commuter routes including the M5 motorway network.
