Highfields Farm, Warstones, 1940s. Harvesting oats on Highfields Farm. Note the powered machinery instead of horse-drawn. It is unknown as to when the farm buildings were erected, but it is known that Highfields Farm was inhabited by the Collins family. The farm was demolished around 1956 to make way for the erection, by Wolverhampton Borough Council, of Highfields Secondary School in 1956.
