context_page_description: Queslett is an area of Great Barr, Birmingham, England.
  The name has been in use since the 16th century. The first part means a wood pigeon, the second comes from the Anglo-Saxon for a small valley.
  The area was part of Staffordshire until 1928.
  In 1810, in A Complete History of the Druids, T G Lomax described the area:
  At the declivity of very pleasingly diversified hills, near Quieslade, is a most delightful lake, by crossing the head of which, the admirer of variegated landscape will be amply rewarded by an agreeable range over the opposite hills, where the High-Wood and Barr Beacon present themselves to view; and by gradually climbing the first of these two summits, the south-east prospect becomes very rich and extensive; and the latter presents an unbounded panorama into fifteen counties, which PLOT, in his History of Staffordshire, has specified.
  .
  The area was mostly developed with private housing from the 1930s onwards, and is centred on the A4041 Queslett Road between West Bromwich and Sutton Coldfield, overlooked by Barr Beacon.
