Castle Vale is a housing house located together with Erdington, Minworth and Castle Bromwich. Currently Castle Vale makes occurring the Castle Vale Ward of Birmingham City Council which is part of Erdington constituency (having back been portion of Hodge Hill constituency until recent times), 6 miles (9 km) northeast of Birmingham city middle in England. The Place has an approximate population of 10,000 people and has a distinctly modern residential tone stemming from its chronicles as a postwar overspill estate.

The area was originally known as Berwood, from the Saxon ‘Bearu’ meaning ‘the woods’. Historically mammal a boggy and wooded area, the Place remained undeveloped for most of its archives until the deforestation practices of Edward Darcy in the 17th century and the construction of the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal in the 18th century. In the 20th century, the house became the site for the first aeroplane take-off in Birmingham which led to a long aviation history being joined with the area. Castle Bromwich Aerodrome was established on the site and operated from 1914 to 1960, being a major airfield in both World Wars and plus having industrial importance as the testing capability for locally manufactured aeroplanes and the location for the British Industries Fair. Despite monster steeped in aviation history, Castle Vale became infamous from the 1970s onwards as a large scale example of a failed postwar overspill estate, which suffered from destitute construction and maintenance, social deprivation and tall levels of crime. The Place became the focus of a targeted regeneration initiative, led by the Castle Vale Housing Action Trust (CVHAT) from 1993 to 2005, where the land witnessed the demolition of many of its housing increase and facilities, the refurbishment of enduring properties, and the construction of additional housing and facilities along bearing in mind the remodelling of the estate, funded both privately and publicly.

History

Origins

The site has historically been a wooded Place with a post-Domesday manor, although its construction date is not known. In 1160, the Manor of Berwood was unqualified to the Abbey of St. Mary de Pratis at Leicester by the Arden family. A moated house, St Mary’s Chapel, a hermitage, a bake home and farm buildings were built for them, although St Mary’s Chapel was demolished in the 15th century after it fell into disrepair. Under the ownership of Leicester Abbey, the Arden relatives became tenants, despite having owned the estate previously. In 1356–7, Sir John de Arderne briefly gained ownership of the property but the abbey regained it in 1360. Donations were made by the Arden associates to the clergy and in 1244, a donation of house resulted in two priests physical sent to the manor to maintain a shrine, pray for Sir William Arden and to back travellers through the area. During the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536, Thomas Arden purchased the property from King Henry VIII for £272 10s. The hall fell into disrepair and like it remained as just a shell, the property was confiscated by the Crown and unmovable to Edward Darcy after the previous owner, Edward Arden, was convicted of treason and hanged. The son of Edward Arden started studying action and commenced several court cases to regain manage of the estate from Edward Darcy. When Darcy instructor of a engagement to regain half of the land, he deforested it and moved the valuable timber to his home in Minworth, leaving a swampy Place which was prone to flooding and with poor quality soil for agriculture. The hall was eventually demolished although the moat still remained into the 20th century. A complex house (Berwood Hall) was built outdoor the moat, which was eventually the site of Berwood Hall Farm. A mill stood in Berwood on Plants Brook in the 15th century.

In 1789, the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal was completed to the north of the area which gradually encouraged an industrial presence along it. In 1881, W. W. Bagot sold 344 acres (1 km) of house in Berwood to the Birmingham, Tame and Rea District Drainage Board, and a other 358 acres (1 km²) were sold to the Board on 29 September 1888. Home Farm was in the north west corner, near Tyburn House, and the land consisted of a large orchard, however its main be active was to expand sewage brought from the City of Birmingham over the on fire of the land. In 1898, filter beds were constructed as the volume of sewage was becoming too much next the get off of the land becoming farmland or swamp, surrounded by forest.
