Ernest Stevens, a local Stourbridge benefactor, purchased White Hall in Pedmore together with ten acres of land to establish a maternity home which was given by deed of gift to the borough of Stourbridge in 1931. He named the new maternity home after his wife who had died in 1925. In 1991 a hospice was opened on one part of the property initially offering day care services to the terminally ill. This was later expanded to include a residential unit.
