More Information

We have not, as yet, found any more information about the Sillins Estate, particularly over the last 80 Years.

Obviously, when Redditch was designated as a new town in 1964, there was a major transfer of farm land to the Development Corporation for the building of road, residential and industrial estates.

If you have any information about this period we would very much like to see it and add it to this history.
