Bolehall Manor Club
Looking up above the entrance on Amington Road, this mock-Elizabethan building is curiously asymmetrical. There was a manor house recorded here in 1810 although the site was also occupied by a tape mill. This was all part of the Peel estate, belonging to the family of Sir Robert Peel, until it was sold off in the 1880s. The house was extensively rebuilt by William MacGregor in 1891; MacGregor was vicar of St Editha's Church in Tamworth from 1878 - 1887 and was a noted amateur Egyptologist. A blue plaque by the door has been provided by the Tamworth Heritage Trust to commemorate his time here. After his death the building was sold and became a private members' club whose members included many of the most eminent citizens of Tamworth. It remains a club and members enjoy a range of benefits, including fishing rights on the River Anker, but the building is also available as a venue for private functions including wedding receptions. See https://tamworthheritagetrust.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/mcgregor.pdf for further historical details.
