    Cox's Bakeries

    It looks like Coral's was 197&195, the entry on the far right would have accessed No. 193. On the image attached I think No. 193 is just hidden from view by the pub. Another case of so near but so far.

    Mill Lane Digbeth

    I found this other image of Broadbents and Mill Lane on the Digbeth thread posted by Stitcher, think it should be included here. Appears to be a Phyliss Nicklin original.

    heavy snow warning for birmingham

    We moved to Cannock just in time for the 62/63 winter, missed school just 1 day that winter and even then I walked there, the snow was piled up either side of the pavement, when I got there the school had been closed.

    Soho Road Handsworth

    It certainly appears that the Handsworth Historical Society got it wrong, I hope this helps to correct the mistake highlighted by Crabslaw.
