Hi All

I don't know which forum to post this request on this site and my request on the facebook group has yielded nil response !!

how do I search for what I want on this site !!

I am looking for an image of St Mary & St Ambrose Church, Pershore Rd in the early 1900's shortly after it's opening in 1903

I don't know the date of this, but it must be pretty old as it looks like it was taken before the old brick built church hall was replaced by the timber one that has been there ever since I can remember and that is the early 50's. I'm afraid its not a very good photo.

My grandfather was the vicar at this church prior to 1950 - Rev. Dr. Martin Hughes.

Attached is a photo of him after he retired.
