History of The Chase The Chase, known as Widney Farm prior to the 1920s, was originally part of the Manor of Longdon. This was owned by Lord Byron upon his marriage in 1815 to Anne Isabella Milbank, the daughter of Sir Ralph Noel, 6th Baronet. Upon Lady Byron's death in 1860, the manor was passed down to her son-in-law, William King-Noel, 1st Earl of Lovelace. Following his death in 1899 it was sold to a Joseph Bennett Clarke and quickly sold again to well-known local bakers and confectioners, the Pattison Brothers. At this point the farm became known as Smith's Farm, named after the tenant of the farm, Sydney Smith. It is said that is also how Smiths Lane got its name. Around 1918, Widney Farm was bought by Samuel Boddington of Hillfield Hall, a retired Birmingham wool merchant. This event marked a number of changes to the property, most notably its renaming to 'The Chase'. This may have been to distinguish the site from Widney Manor House, which had been known as Widney Farm. He had the house extended and modernised and moved there in the 1930s. Boddington's impact shifted the site from a working farm to a more genteel domestic setting. After Boddington's death in 1937, The Chase was bought by Captain Oliver Bird, the grandson Alfred Bird, the founder of 'Bird's Custard'. Oliver is said to have made further alterations to the house, before giving it to his wife in 1947. She lived there until her death in 1969 upon. Still available at ListedBuy!
