Lee Bank is an inner city area of Birmingham, England. It is part of the Edgbaston and Ladywood wards, inside the Middle Ring Road, near to the centre of Birmingham. Together with the Woodview, Benmore, Five Ways and The Sentinels estates, it now forms the area Attwood Green.
Lee Bank's neighbouring areas are Edgbaston, Ladywood, Highgate and Balsall Heath.
Nearby is the former site of Matthew Boulton College before it moved to the Eastside, and a new development called Opal One consisting of student housing.
Famous people that have lived on the estate include the former pop duo Hot 'N' Juicy, who achieved fame when their song, Horny, was remixed by Mousse T..

Famous quotes containing the words lee and/or bank:
“Surely tis by faith we are upheld thro such trials—justice will be meted in time to those who fill soft places and malign men who perform heroic duties—”

“on a May morwening upon Malverne hilles
Me befel a ferly, of fairye me thoughte;
I was wery ofwandred and wente me to reste
Under a brod bank by a bournes side;
And as I lay and lenede and lookede on the watres,
I slomerede into a sleeping, it swyede so merye.”
—William Langland (1330–1400)
