I joint this site mostly for family research but I now find myself interested in history, and I was reading an article in the evening mail about queens park in yardley and the lovely church st edburgha's, I didn't realise that it was so old it was completed in 1461 and was dedicated to king alfreds grandaughter and next to the church is a trust school thought to date back to 1512 but was no longer a school in 1908 and is now used as parish rooms, I have been to many weddings there and have never noticed the school so I must go and have a look next week. My mom and dad were married there too.
