Funny you should say that, Lyn. This is nearby Miller Street after a bombing raid, so sadly I think you are probably correct. I don't think people realise the amount of people that died in the Birmingham bombing raids during WW2.brilliant BB pic 3 looks like bomb damage...took a good look at pic 2 just in case it could have been my uncle sitting on the bench which its not

Lyn, sorry I've only just seen your post 21 - don't know why!Some very interesting photographs of Walmers Recreation Ground / Blews Street Park featuring the band stand (date unknown). pen if you read this i reposted this one as it was missing from this post...only just notice that that you had already posted it...may as well leave it on now

Such a lovely park, though not much in there at the time, but at least we knew how to have lots of fun anyway. I remember (after lots of brain shaking & mixing the name up with another park), I knew it as Blews street park.shame walmer rec ground is no longer there...the whole area is now industrial units and car park...such a shame..
