St Anne's Church Cato Street Duddeston

Bit of history info on St. Anne's-Duddeston:

ST. ANNE, Duddeston (Cato St.), a red brick building designed by J. G. Dunn in the Gothic style and consisting of chancel, nave, aisles and bellcot, was consecrated in 1869. (fn. 12) Three of the four bells, dated 1650, 1638 and 1740, were brought from St. Mary's, Moseley, in 1874. (fn. 13) In 1869 a parish was assigned out of St. Matthew's, Duddeston, the living, which became a vicarage in 1874, being in the gift of the bishop. (fn. 14) The church was closed in 1951, and the benefice was united with that of St. Matthew, Duddeston. (fn. 15) A mission room in Great Francis Street was licensed for public worship from 1908 to 1926. (fn. 16)

Did you take this photograph yourself? The official Church records state that this church was demolished shortly about 1951.

I've been looking for a photo of this church for my family history records. Could I please have permission to use your photo in my write up. Helen
 
Helen that photo was put on the forum 3 years ago i,m not sure if O C is a member but i,m sure there would be no reason why you could not take a copy. Dek
 
O C is no longer a member but I believe he removed anything that was copyrighted so I am sure it is OK to copy it. Alberta.
