I guess it would be one way of saying " I will flatten anyone who comes near me."

Mike You Are Great !! I can see your point . Thank you for putting me right as I only assumed it was NEW with part of that sign missing. After what you have told me I think I may be taking a trip around Cannon Hill park this year.

On my 1904 Kelly's I have 18 - 19 - 20 as Gordon Hall then at 23 Lees Albert, " COOPER" so I guess 21 and 22 is the large building marked NEW INN which had since disappeared before 1904.

Polly, I had seen some of those in the Central Library when I used to be able to get there, I thought the one about being drunk in charge of a steam engine very funny, although I did have steam roller in mind , can you imagine it ?

Mike and Linda Thank you both for your replies. I can only imagine that some buildings had disappeared between the 1904 Kelly's listings and the 1913 Kelly's Listings in this area.

Mike, Could I ask you if it has St John's Church and Pillar Box ? I was puzzled by the shop front not listed on Kelly's and a shoe maker's sign on the wall when I feel it was listed as the other side of St John's Church. It just seems a bit of a puzzle when I am saying it seems to fit as the...

Looked like a great time had by all. Pity someone did not introduce each one by name but should I really say anything when I was not even there, but maybe next time.

Great Photographs, Even Greater People, But Frothy I Dont Know Their Names. Please Please Add Their Names.

Sorry I meant to put this in my earlier post.

I was always a bit confused as to where I came from. Was it Nechells, Duddeston or Ashted , now I can see how close Nechells and Duddeston are.

Pleased to see you once again Anne.

Sorry I cannot make it but I hope that everything goes well for all of you. TAKE CARE EVERYONE !!

Lyn, I think it may have been on before , but then what's it matter. A lovely Photograph with lots of information on it. I think it is an Italian family of the area.

I guess it needs a lookup on a Kelly's if someone has one for 1836 ? Do you have any idea where it was Lyn ?

I ranted on not so long ago about a farm at the lower end of Henry Street, I think this is the one. From " Images of England " Saltley, Duddeston and Nechells" by Maria Twist which has a wealth of Photographs. ISBN 0-7524-2279-0

Could anyone post a photograph of Gordon Hall working boy's home please ? or any other information about it please. High Street, Deritend.

Dave, Thank you for the reply, I do hope they manage to put them back as it would not be the same without them.

Do they still have those giant lilly pads ?
