Woodlands
is a non-profit home for older people registered by the Commission for Social Care Inspection, owned and managed by The Society
of Friends (Quakers). The main house with 30 residents, which has served as a residential home since 1945 is a Victorian
listed building of charm and character, originally the family home of Neville Hanbury Mander. The Spinney located in the old stable block, is a self-contained unit for Older Mentally Infirm
with 9 residents. Elsewhere in the same grounds are the Paddocks,
25 warden-assisted flats.
Woodlands has a welcoming and homely atmosphere with an emphasis on quality care, comfort and security in a residential
setting but with an awareness of the wider community.
Large,
pleasant and well-maintained gardens surround all of the Woodland buildings. Wolverhampton City Centre is two and a half miles
away and can be reached by a regular local bus service from the top of the drive. Village shops, a Post Office,Health
Centre and an express supermarket open daily are all reached via a short walk through the well maintained formal
gardens and woodland pathway.
