    Fast Pits Road, Yardley

    Oh thank you. That would make sense. I’ll have a look at the 1920 map.

    The Hobmoor

    Hi Leanne My family know your mom and dad so well (We’re the Hayward’s). We lived at number 60 Fast Pits from 1962-1970 so grew up with your mom, aunts and uncle and of course your nan. My sister Carol used to wag it with your mom And of cause we all drank in the Hobmoor . Hope they’re both well.

    Fast Pits Road, Yardley

    I’m looking at the electoral registers for fast pits road. I lived there between 1962 and 1970. I can’t find anything before 1935 so assume that’s when the street was built. I’m interested to find out why there was never numbers 58,56,54 and 52. We lived at number 60 and it then jumps to number...

    Hill Street Pub

    That’s fascinating. Thank you. The canaries entry does say Mill St but I’m guessing it’s a typo. How do you find out all this stuff?

    Hill Street Pub

    Hi Not sure what I'm doing here but I am very interested in The Unicorn Pub Hill Street as my great great grandfather is listed as living here on the 1871 census as a Licensed Victualler. Any Help greatly appreciated.
