A remarkable survivor in the middle of Chelmsley Wood. Alcott Hall is the original 18th century farmhouse of the area, and is certainly shown on the maps of the late 18th century, at which time the adjacent Berwicks Lane was marked as a footpath. The house attracted a Grade II listing in 1976 https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101055808-alcott-hall-chelmsley-wood#.WSKJJesrKM8 and now stands rather incongruously amongst extensive modern housing estates. It is now a small business centre.
