Bolehall was recorded as a manor in medieval times and was part of Warwickshire until 1889. Although the area developed from the late 18th century onwards with coal mining and clay extraction, as well as a tape mill in the 19th century, major expansion occurred in the mid-20th century as a suburb of Tamworth. The semi-detached houses seen here at the junction of Amington Road and Manor Road date from that time.
