My Mum was born at 56 Blake Lane Spark Brook

I have forgotton what she told me; which school's she would have attended in that area could someone enlighten me the names of schools she could have gone to.
Is it possible to get any records of my Mum's attendance?
Wendy.
 
Hi Wendy,
First of all ,Blake Lane isn't in Sparkbrook, it is in Bordesley Green, in fact the houses still remain that would have been there at your Mothers time, next time I'm passing I will take a picture for you.
Your Mother would have gone to either Bordesley Green Girls School or maybe Marlborough Rd School ,both of which are still operating today.
I was born and bred in the same area as your Mom so if there is anything I can help with, please let me know.
 
Postie,
Thank you for your time today I would like a photo that is very kind offer.
My Mum was born in 1923 she lived in Blake Lane through her childhood.

Another quest for me maybe going to visit these School's.

If you don't mind I would like to know more---- and would like to contact you very soon going out now enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Many thanks Kind regards Wendy.
 
Hi Wendy
I took a picture of your Moms house, it would have looked pretty much the same as it does now, except for the cars . 56 is the one to the right of the white one.
The other picture is a view of the pub, opposite.
Enjoy
