The Old Berry Hall, a 15th-century half-timbered building located on Ravenshaw Lane in central Solihull, was initially known as Berry Hall. In the 1870s, it was renamed by owner Joseph Gillott, who was constructing a grand new home on the estate. The renaming of the original building is inferred to have taken place, given the availability of the information. Despite the renaming, the original building continued to be referred to as 'Old' Berry Hall. The Old Berry Hall remains standing today, while 'New Berry Hall' was demolished in the late 1980s.
