This neo-classical, three storey building dates from before 1760 and is Grade II Listed. It still stands today behind St Mary and St John's church hall.

It "became an orphanage for young boys known as St Michael’s. The orphanage was run by Anglican nuns of the Society of the Incarnation of the Eternal Son ..... Sister Rosa was in charge of the orphanage". Source: Bill Dargue's History of Birmingham Places
