The New Hall Estate is the older of the two major private housing estates named after New Hall Manor in the Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield in the West Midlands in England. The newer being New Hall Manor Estate. It was built in a number of phases beginning in the 1980s by Bryant Homes with the final phase (Granary Lane) built in the late 1990s, on land which was formerly part of Newhall Farm formerly owned by Rubery Owen Holdings. It is a maze of roads and a mix of privately owned, detached, semi detached and town houses, with two areas of smaller houses, flats and studio apartments. The construction of the estate was considered one of the most complicated housing projects of the decade in England due to the angle of the land on which some of the houses were built on. The estate can be accessed via Walmley Road onto Sir Alfreds Way, named after Sir Alfred Owen or via the top of Reddicap Hill onto Betteridge Drive or via the bottom of Reddicap Hill onto Lisures Drive. The start of Lisures Drive follows the path of the old Newhall Drive which was the access road to Newhall Farm which then continued across farmland to New Hall Manor now New Hall Hotel, the Farm was demolished and new houses built in its place on Newhall Drive, which is now accessed off the bottom of Lisures Drive. The estate borders New Hall Valley Country Park with access to the park from Fledburgh Drive, Newhall Farm Close and the footpath linking the two roads. The Estate contains many old trees covered under tree protection orders (TPO 313 and TPO 343), including Homewood, accessed from Sir Alfreds way or Preston Avenue, an Old Oak Woodland. The estates street lighting was upgraded in 2013 to white eco friendly LED lampposts The cutting edge lights not only reduce carbon emissions but are brighter than traditional lights, and enable operators to control and adjust their levels remotely. Residents have reported feeing safer when walking down previously poorly lit streets as the LED lights allow a wider spectrum of colours to be seen and facial features to be distinguished.

New Hall Manor is a medieval manor house, now used as a hotel, in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, England. It is claimed to be one of the oldest inhabited moated houses in Britain, dating from the 13th century when the Earl of Warwick built a hunting lodge on the site. The first reference to the site as a manor is from 1435 when by the homage in a court baron at Sutton after Sir Richard Stanhope's death, when he held it of the Earl of Warwick. The core of the present building, including the great hall, dates from the 16th century when the Gibbons family (relatives of Bishop Vesey) were in residence. Thomas Gibbons is said to have bought New Hall in 1552. Later owners included the Sacheverells, who received it from Thomas and Edward Giddons, and the Chadwicks, who were bequeathed it from George Sacheverell. In 1739, the Sacheverells mortgaged the New Hall estate to Francis Horton of Wolverhampton. The buildings served briefly as a school from 1885; Lt. Col. Wilkinson restored the Hall to residential use in 1903. In 1923 it was acquired by Alfred Owen of Rubery Owen and remained the Owen family home until the 1970s. It was converted to a hotel in 1988 by Ian Hannah and Ken Arkley, of Thistle Hotels. It is now owned and operated by Hand Picked Hotels. The house gives its name to Sutton New Hall ward, New Hall Valley and the New Hall Valley Country Park therein, and also the New Hall Estate and New Hall Manor Estate, which was constructed on New Hall Farm, both residential developments. Plants Brook used to drive New Hall Mill before being channelled away from the mill. The building is Grade I listed, with other Grade II structures.

The exteriors of the building were additionally briefly used during the third season of TV show Killing Eve in 2020
