Good morning John
Yes its a pleasure to tell you, the book is called The Streets Of Brum ( Part 5 ) and it is a Carl chinns book
AndFirst Printed in 2009 and published By Brew in Books Ltd 56 Alcester. Road Studley warwickshire. B80 7 LG,
Brand new its cost £13 ,95 , it list virtually all the roads in brum and the history behind these roads and streets of brum
Going back to the early ages like 1800 s through too 1900,s and of today's ,
I believe there is more parts to the volume I have a number 2 But not the others yet
I expect you could get it of amazon or eBay or possible the central library to purchase I would imagine as I said first issue brand new was £13.96
But today you may get it cheaper ,I was lucky I got mine for roughly for a pound mint condition
I do not know whether you seen my thread some weeks ago that I purchased a Nell of a lot of history books of brum and Walsall
From a lady in Longbridge of every description I have about fifty books all mint condition from this local lady
Whom her father was a huge historian of brum and of course Walsall and a train buff collection
The person whom owned these valued and priceless books of our brum was a George nutt whom I believe was the seeing machine specialist in brum many many years ago from Aston and alum rock born in Walsall she as sold his house and all his property because he is now in his late ninety
And very severe mentia and even does not reckonise is old familly any more
And in a special hospital
I Do Believe many years ago about ten years when I joined the forum there was a person whom wrote a verse about kwricks lane
Spark brook I do recall the verses because of the origin of it and when I got this with the rest and read I emediately thought he's I duo recall it
Its down behind the old Hawley bakery that was on mosely rd right up until the mid fitys before movening to west Bromwich
And I do believe George was a member of this forum, all those years ago and that would have been the last time I heard from him,
Any way john that's the title of the book and believe me its a real gem for brummies and people of this forum,
Have a nice day best wishes Alan,,,, Astonian,,,,,,,
