I am sorry to report that on New Years Eve, Bill Dargue a wonderfully enthusiastic local historian passed away. Many of you will know Bill from his websites for young people and Birmingham Place names web pages
He was a stalwart of the North Arden Local History Society, a bell ringer and author amongst many other things.His knowledge of Castle Bromwich was without parallel and his guided walks were a joy to go on. Castle Bromwich is much poorer for his passing
