west Bromwich births and deaths registry office

A

Astonian

gone but not forgotten
Hi guys can anybody tell me whether or not the west Bromwich registered office for births and deaths office is still in circulation
As I am thinking of contacting them for a birth certificate for a a lady called Beatrice Hinton aged 7 in 1884 Smethwick so I presume it would come under west Bromwich.
Or should I contact the bir Ingham office many thanks astonian,,,,,
 
Alan , how do you know she was 7 in 1884 that would make her born 1877 making her 4 in 1881 census or thereabouts and there is no birth record.

Go you mean the daughter of your Walter who was born Beatrice Annie in 1883 shown as age 7 on the 1891 census,
