Sorry to be pedantic Carfol, but is 1.32 Hindgeston st, no 1 back 32 , or no 1 court 32 ?. They are close, but 1 court 32 is approx behind no 36 and no 32 is approx in front of court 33

Mike you are correct its 1 Court 32 Hingeston Street.

Hi all,

I'm after a picture and/or the exact location of 62 Aston Street, which was a barber's shop run by Joseph LONGMORE from 1871 until sometime in the 1890s when he moved to 233 Lichfield Road. Can anyone help please?

No luck with Avenue Road or Headingley Road so far but will have a look when I've got more time
I haven't got pictures but Avenue Road runs off Oxhill Road into Uplands Road; Headingley Road runs from Oxhill Road to Elmhurst Road - both are very close together in Handsworth.
