Hi Annie well it was 324 green lane mum was told it was referred as the posh little sweet shop but there people on here that said they recall a man working there with one leg with the surname hands but it would have been 1940s thank you and I just hope other people see what I'm putting and might know something cheers any way xHello Amanda,
My memories of Breezes are 1950s to late 60s and I do not recall anyone working there, during that time, other than the Breeze/Harby family members.
Are you sure it was Breezes ? There was another sweetshop further along Green Lane, between Palace and Charles Road.
Good luck with your research.

Hi Annie yea I knew all that hun but thank you but it's a bit wired as people on here remember a man in the posh little sweet shop and he had one leg which he did so odd I'm so close but so far away grrrr lol thank I'm new to this site is there any way you could get it out there that I'm trying look for any family members now and we really want a photo of him plz xxHello again Amanda,
Have just looked at the electoral rolls and found the following::
1950
Bert E Hands at 324 Green Lane Small Heath
1955
Bert E Hands at 20 Bolton Road Small Heath
Breezes was No 238 Green Lane
Could this be your Bert ? He's with an Agnes Hands
Hope I'm not giving you info you already have.
Annie
