The [[suburb]] forms a triangle bounded to the north by [[Pheasey]], to the west by [[Perry Beeches]], and to the east by [[Kingstanding]]. The Birmingham City Council ward that covers the area is called simply [[Oscott (ward)|Oscott]]. The area has been known locally as "Old" Oscott since [[St Mary's College, Oscott|St. Mary's College]], the Roman Catholic [[seminary]], moved to a new site in an area that became known as [[New Oscott]]. The area was mostly developed between 1920 and 1960, with a mix of both private and [[council housing]]. Old Oscott F.C. takes its name from the area. ==External links== {{Areas of Birmingham}} [[Category:Areas of Birmingham, West Midlands]] [[Category:History of Staffordshire]] [[Category:Kingstanding]] [[Category:Great Barr]] {{WestMidlands-geo-stub}}
