I found this the other day and I love the message on the back, referring to it as a village, which i suppose it was then.

Would that be the Library on the right hand side (first building) seem to remember it looked similar many years later.
 
Thanks jennyann, certainly remember most of the areas that your photos were taken. My Mother, Sister and I used to visit the centre of Perry Barr most weeks as we only lived up the Walsall road by the two parks. I can also remember when the new precinct was built in the early sixties as one of my Mothers friends worked at Macfisheries.
