Mike if you see this post,I wonder if you could tell me where Potters Field was as i have a G G G Grandfather living there in 1851.Mossg
 
On the 1851 census, the house immediately before Potters Field was The Park Tavern on Walsall road (presumably now High St Aston). Then came Potters Field houses, and then Aston Furnace. Not managed to pin it down any more
 
Thanks Mike,there is a lot of great information there. As you say there would have been quite an incline on that football pitch,i bet the opposition did not look forward to playing away to Dreadnought FC. Moss
