Phil, you are correct, the garage i am interested in is next to the Kings Arms. Interesting map details there. It does look right, Thanks.

Hi, does anybody here remember Eastcroft Garage in Coleshill Road, Sutton Coldfield in the late 1940`s. I need to know if the yard at the back had two rows of lock up garages for general public. Thanks, Paul

Hmm, ok, thanks for looking that up for me.

One last look up Mike please. In the 1950 edition of Kellys does it have a K Miles living at 29 Queenswood Road, Moseley? Thanks.

Ok, thanks for looking.

Sorry, what I meant was, is there a Mr K. Miles listed as living in Moseley Road in 1950 or 1951? Thanks.

Hi, Would someone please look up Moseley Road for me to see if there is a Mr K Miles listed. I would like to know if he lived there in 51 too. Thanks.

I wonder if the Henry Miles in Liverpool was a different person. Just read on the Woolworths museum site their first shop in the UK was in the former Henry Miles milleners there.

I do not live in the area so do not know, so to ask a possibly silly question was the depot in Scotland Passage, High St destroyed during the war?

Hi, I believe the Miles Tea & Coffee business moved to Victoria Road, Sutton Coldfield when the original premises was bombed in 1940. Does anyone know where the original business was please?

Hi, can any members help me please. I am interested in racing activities in around Birmingham area in late forties. Has anyone got old programs from car clubs such as SUNBAC, Shenstone & District and Hagley & District Light Car Club. If so , I would be grateful if you could share some...

Thanks for the comments guys.

Hi can anyone help please. When exactly was Wolseley Motors K Block at Ward End works, Washwood Heath built, 1947 or 1948? and when was the whole factory knocked down and housing built on it? Thanks

Maurice, thank you for your help.

Interesting thank you. I think racing team boss Ralph Broad bought the premises afterwards.

Good morning, not much to add but Miles was known to have lodged with his wife at Anderton Park Road in 1946 with Cliff Baker or Mike Sinnott or Sennet, not sure of the spelling. Sketchey I know.

Mike, in 1947 Ken Miles lived in Queenswood Road, its 1946 which I am trying to get to the bottom of where he lived then. I have been talking to someone who thinks they worked on each other's sports cars in Anderson Park Road. Just trying to clarify that.

Oh, I think I will try and get back to the gentleman who told me about this. Thanks again for taking the time in looking for me.

Hmm that's a shame, I think Mr Bakers name was Clive. Thanks for looking by the way.

K for Ken
