St. Mary's Church, Selly Oak

[Bob Hughes]

I was a member of this church until 1970. Was in the choir, an acolyte and a server. Rev. Webster was the vicar.

All male! How things will almost certainly have changed in the subsequent fifty years. Attended friends wedding at this church in March '64.

That should have been '65

I may have been a choir member at the ceremony.

The church, Grade II listed, was completed in 1861. It's at 925 Bristol Road, Selly Oak, and still approached via an avenue towards the lych gate. The lych gate no longer has gates.
