GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
I used to shop in the Perry Barr Co-Op in the 50's. Next to it was a green grocers and I went in for the usual potato's and veg and decided to buy mushrooms. I asked for half a pound and the reply I got was 'They are 1/6d a quarter you know' !!!
The Co Op was just above the turn into Ason Lane in my memory, was the next turn Brag Road and then a row of shops with a wide footpath then came Thornbury Road with the Police Station on the corner and the Odeon on the Birchfield Road?
