He was remembered in the General Post Office, Victoria Square with a statue by Peter Hollins. (See post #2 for image). The statue is supposed to now reside at the Aston Royal Mail Delivery Office. Is it still there I wonder ?
Although not born in Birmingham, he had strong associations. Hazelwood School in particular, having opened this school with his other family members. Roland designed and supervised the building of the school.
