I am a very new member who is finding the Forum and its posts fascinating. But there is a lot that new members have to learn. I have been using the Forum Practice Area to try out various attachments and I had thought that these tests would remain in the Practice Area. However somehow my drafts have leaked out into the Shops forum, and appeared without explanation. I apologise for the confusion.
For post #694 I had intended to provide this introduction:
For both the rebuildings of the Birmingham Lewis’s between 1924 and 1935 the Architect (my grandfather G de C Fraser) had an office in Temple Row (which leads into the Minories. Here his “resident representative” David Lumsden was based. After eleven years of presumably successful cooperation there was a bust up. Lumsden claimed he was a partner and sued the architect, who denied the claim. The press cutting I attached describes the court case which the judge said was pretty childish.
Post #695 has nothing to do with Birmingham. It is a photograph of Gerald de Courcy Fraser laying a foundation stone elsewhere. Its only interest to the Forum is that there might be a photo of a similar event in Birmingham.
Again, sorry for the confusion.
