Hi Smithy

Not much on my History of Birmingham Places & Placenames . . . from A to Y - https://billdargue.jimdo.com/ , but better than nothing.
Have a look at -
https://billdargue.jimdo.com/placenames-gazetteer-a-to-y/places-s/stechford/ .
There's also a Forum thread - https://forum.birminghamhistory.co.uk/showthread.php?t=22140 with a picture.

Just done a search using Yahoo for Stechford Hall, it throws up a Stechford Hall Asylum, not sure of the details as the web page it brings up wont open. Don't know if this will help or hinder but might be worth investigating.

Link shows where a Stechford Hall Park is today so maybe it takes its name from where the Hall used to be

Stechford Hall by Bill Dargue…

Stechford

The modern district of Stechford covers a wide area north of Yardley, of which manor it formed the western part, and east of the River Cole, which marked the boundary with the manor of Castle Bromwich. The first recorded version of the name Sticheford, however, derives from the Old English...

Here is a map c1902 showing Stechford Hall

Stechford Hall Park which I presume was the surrounds of Stechford Hall has its' gate in Stechford road about a mile from its' junction with Bromford Lane or alternatively can be accessed from Coleshill Road just up from the fox and goose pub.
