Can any one help locate Grange Lane, Bordesley, (NOT Grange lane, Erdington). It was there in and around 1841, possibly near Grange Road (guessing). Many thanks
Many thanks Linda. I have located it on the census, can anyone give me help with its location in Bordesley, hopefully a map. If it next to Dark Street, where was dark street.
I think Dark Lane became Kingston Rd?
Nearby would probably have been Lawley Street,Watery Lane, Garrison Lane.
Grange Lane may have been lost when they started building the railway?
