Thanks for posting the photo. I remember all the names you have mentioned, unfortunately I don’t recognise anyone in the photos though.

Thank you so much for taking the trouble to post this

I lived at 3 Lea Road. The original house was demolished in the late 70s. Thanks for trying.

My friend's Mum worked for Fillerys Toffees. We used to meet her from work on a Friday as she bought home bags of the toffees, also whilst we were waiting, other workers leaving used to offer us toffees as well. I don't think we ever turned down an offer, as treats were so rare.

I think that due to the good experiences I had at the DentalHospital, the dentist holds no fear for me.

Thank you Dennis, greatly enjoyed your artical. I used to go to the Dental Hospital in my childhood and teens. It was a great place to be treated.

I can only remember one building facing the road but a hall at the back of the property.

Yes, that’s the one. Thank you.

That was the Newsagents I bought my Bunty, Judy and subsequently, Romeo and Jackie.

Phil, there was also another church, or more correctly, a Mission Hall, it was called St Bedes. I used to go to Sunday School there. It was a green corrugated building opposite the Warwick Road side of Greet School.

Thanks Phil, I remember all those photos and they are exactly how I remember them

Thank you for responding so quickly. Maybe I will get lucky when you next search. x

Hello Lyn, I am looking for photos of Lea Road, Greet, Birmingham B11. I used to live there in the 50s to early 70s and attended Greet Primary School, Warwick Road/Percy Road which was just across the road from me as my road led on to Percy Road. The photos I have found are mainly from Google...

Love the photo of Small Heath Paddling pools, My Mum used to take my sister and myself there as a treat. I think the bottom of the pools were painted different colours, making the water look a different colour in each pool.

Thank you for the lovely pictures of Greet, I went to Greet School and lived in Lea Road so they bought back so many wonderful memories. I don't suppose that you have any of Lea Road, I used to live at the bottom of the road, opposite Greet School
