Highfield Road, BIRMINGHAM, B28 0HP

Highfield House is another historical building. It was built in 1850, making it the oldest house and the third oldest building in Hall Green. It was the farm house for Highfield Farm. The house was built in Georgian style with beautiful Neo-Classical features. It also retains the original sash windows. The demolition of the locally listed building has been proposed by developers, who want to build homes on the surrounding land. The ground floor of the house still has its wooden shutters fitted to the inside of each window frame which were closed and secured at night. The present day use for these shutters was to keep the house warm at night as they were very effective for excluding draughts but their original purpose was one of fortification against attack. When the house was built many isolated houses were a target for burglars, brigands and armed assault.

The roundabout eases the flow of traffic where Highfield Road crosses Robin Hood Lane.

In this parade is a nursery for children, a funeral parlour and a shop specialising in mobility and independent living equipment. This large unit was only quite recently refurbished and renamed, but is now closed and has been to let.
