California, Birmingham

California is small suburban area of Birmingham, England. It lies within Bartley Ward and the Birmingham Edgbaston constituency and is located on the edge of Woodgate Valley Country Park.
==History==
Originally located in the parish of Northfield and part of Worcestershire the settlement of California takes its name from the California Inn built by Isaac Flavell〔, ''Birmingham Place Names'', p. 7.〕 on the junction of Barnes Hill and Alwold Road. Flavell bought Stonehouse Farm and the surrounding land in 1842,〔, ''One Thousand Years of Brum'', p. 33.〕 and set up a brick building business. There are tales that the name of the California Inn was taken from the state of California where Flavell had earlier made "something of a fortune" in the California Gold Rush.〔, ''One Thousand Years of Brum'', p. 33.〕 But the Gold Rush did not start until 1848, and records show that Flavell was established in business well before that, with operations at Gas Street, as well as the Stonehouse site. The village became well known for its brick making which was helped by the presence of the Dudley No. 2 Canal which ran through the area, the eastern portal of the Lapal Tunnel was also located in California. The area became part of Birmingham in 1911 along with Northfield.
