Forhill House, Forhill, from Lea End Lane
Forhill* House was a City of Birmingham remand home for boys in the period 1945-1987. The approach at Forhill and elsewhere was experimental and observational: "the idea was that the home would be used more as an opportunity to try to work out why the child’s behaviours had arisen rather than as a place of punishment." A history may be found at http://www.search.connectinghistories.org.uk/engine/resource/default.asp?theme=&originator=%2Fengine%2Ftheme%2Fdefault.asp&records=871&resource=1663 If demolition of buildings has taken place aerial photos show no sign of it: it appears as a secluded residential development. Estate agents refer to the site as Forhill Manor, a development of 42 houses and flats. Forhill House appears now to be called Forhill Court. *pronounced forrull
