Nowadays part of Sutton Coldfield, Four Oaks has it's origin in the sixty acres of land bought by Henry Folliott, 1st Baron Folliott of Ballyshannon in 1677. Four Oaks Hall was built on the estate which later became a deer park. The estate changed hands a number of times, eventually it was bought for residential development in 1868.
Two hundred houses were built on the estate to form the modern day Four Oaks Estate which is one of the West Midlands' most expensive and exclusive residential areas. Four Oaks Hall was demolished in 1898.
Four Oaks contains two churches of interest including All Saints parish church and the fine Methodist church which is located opposite Four Oaks railway station.
