I would like some info on the Camp Hill Brewery, 58 Ravenhurst St, Birmingham around 1936. I have letters from cousins at this time on the brewery letterhead. I believe it was owned or run by my Great Uncle / Aunt by the name Cottrell. It was either Albert or Ethel.
can anyone help with history from 1935-1940
Marg:rolleyes:

Just out of interest, my mother worked at the Brewer and Baker in the 60's and the licensee then was one: JAMES BOND!
 
Thank you for info. it appears that my family may only have worked there, perhaps in office which explains the use of the letter head writing paper.
Much appreciated
