Excellent photos Lynn, once again evoking lots of memory’s you are a star!

It’s so sad to think that Alan (Astonian) would have loved these.

Lynn, you are a star, I haven’t posted for quite a while. These are awesome, there aren’t any words that would express my joy at seeing these photos, l have experienced all sorts of emotions looking at them, god bless you.

What an excellent film, you always hope that you will see someone that you recognize, thank you Lynn.

Hi Jackie, here are photos of both ends of Sutherland street, unfortunately, I have never seen any of the actual street.

Hi Lynn, I looked on Google Earth and put in Montague street Aston and the one off Great Barr street came up, however, as you say, the map shows no houses. If you look at the photo in #6, Montague street is slap in the middle.

Hi Lynn, thanks for your message, those photos look like the Montague Street off Great Barr Street, Montague Street Aston was only a short street, the pump Tavern was on the corner of Montague and Sutherland street and Waterworks Road was at the bottom. I have searched for ages to find a photo...

here's a picture of his shop on Gravelly hill.

Thankyou Lynn for posting these evocative photos, I went to Aston Hall Road school, I started there in 1948, the area holds many memories although time has dimmed a few!
