Oh, Lyn, sorry you are not well. But you are doing the right thing by staying in, have a rest and hopefully you will be better soon. xxxxxxx

Thank you for posting, but I have seen them before.

The headstone has been repaired today. It hasn't been cleaned yet as we are letting it settle after the repair.

Lady P, how comical!!!!! To match FAB 1, loving it! See you there!!!!!

Just had a detailed read Dave, very interesting. Great to read about how life was in Birmingham, but I feel very privileged to be reading how life was in a street where my relations lived by people that lived there, so thank you and your Brother for providing me with the information.

I'm still coming P, how much are the raffle tickets?

Thanks Radiorails, that is exactly the sort of info I wanted, really interesting and informative.

Thanks Dave, I will have a detailed read later, great maps too. I appreciate the time it has taken to record your memories.

Ok, thanks, Lyn.

Hi all If there's any info on the above or pics I would love to know. What was the route of the tram and where was the terminus? I'm looking for pics as at 139 Dudley Road my relations had a general store until 1917 appx, and the tram mentioned in the title went past the premises.

I'm so fascinated by the pics. Thanks again. It's just great knowing what the Street looked like. It looked so alive and full of character.

What shall I do radiorails? Edit - posts about the 'General Stores' moved from memorial thread to this thread.

Thanks Radiorails.

Thanks to all looking for pics, yes, I thought that the 139 premises was just out of shot, as the numbers will be odd on that side of the road. What would the road be called opposite Heath Street, perhaps a shot taken from that road may show the 139 premises.

Thanks Phil and Radiorails. Great pics. Really thrilled with those. Phil I have seen one of the pics you posted before, but not both, so thanks again. Phil the last photo with the tram on shows some of the buildings to the right which is where Horace Strawbridge had his general stores. Please...

Hi, I've found some info, Lee Bridge Tavern was built in 1919, as Mikejee pointed out some time ago. But hopefully there may still be pics of the pub with other buildings. I live in hope.

Hi all I would like to know if anyone has info or pics of The Lee Bridge Tavern? Had it always been the Lee Bridge Tavern? Horace Strawbridge (died, KIA 1917) had a general store opposite the pub. He must have used the pub so I would love to find out anything I can.

Thanks Astoness.

Did it used to be the Lea Bridge Tavern?

The city fryer looks like an old building?
