    Photo of my Mom in Brum somewhere. Anyone know where?

    Someone I haven't seen for a long time today sent me this photo of our mothers. I was wondering if anyone might know where it might be? To be honest I'm not sure it is even in Birmingham but as they are both Brummie girls it is likely to be. Cheers.

    Velocette factories

    I was watching Military dealers on Quest and the dealer was buying a Welbike, I didn’t know anything about them so descended into a rabbit hole on the web and ended up back here ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welbike

    I'm ashamed to say I didn't and a member of our group told us in the interval! At least my wife didn't see it either! :redface:

    In 1851 my 3rd Great Grandfather lived at No 3 House No 31 Livery Street and I was wondering if anyone has seen any photos of Livery Street ? Also does anyone know whereabouts this house would have been ?
