On Lichfield Road
Lichfield Road's 1827 bypass replaced a turnpike that once ran through a village, past a house rented for one shilling and a dish of meat
History

Around 1680 Sir William Wilson built Moat House and its gatehouse on what is now Lichfield Road. By 1957 the Rookery next door was gone, cleared for a police station and magistrates court.

Crime

In 2017 a 15-year-old was robbed at knifepoint on the road just after 3pm on a school day. The police station itself went up for sale in 2024, and the old courthouse became a Masjid in 2012.

Planning

Three live pressures are reshaping the road: the vacant police station proposed as a health centre, a three-storey retail-and-flats block at No 295, and a five-dwelling backland scheme.

Geography

Lichfield Road as it stands was cut in 1827 to bypass Hill Village, replacing a turnpike route first laid out in 1807. A railway bridge off Irnham Road, built around 1884 when the Sutton branch line was extended to Lichfield, still stands as a footbridge.

Local colour

Mare Pool at Mere Green was once leased for one shilling a year and a dish of meat or fish. Nearby, a garden pond dug in 1987 broke open a Roman pottery kiln.
