Farms

Hamstead and Great Barr has been for most of its time a rural community and even today has significant reminders of its rural past. Only one farmhouse exists at Peak House - this was considered for listing but as it is a 'standard' sort of farmhouse it was not considered and being rare enough, although it is uncommon in this area.

There are several areas which are used for grazing but no real farming.
