Summer Hill Wesleyan Chapel Icknield Street East

I don't want to throw a spanner in the works but...
I did a "google search for Viv's photograph and this is what came up

Does this mean that the number identifed as 158 is actaully a very blurred 398 and we have identified the wrong church?

i think there is a very good chance you are correct jan...i was not convinced vivs photo was taken in icknield st at no 158 the properties look far too well built to be there...also if you look at your map post 11 it shows the houses to the left of the church as having front gardens as do the ones in vivs photo

It seemed to me that the footprint of brummy-lads map post #2 fitted photo #1. And it's named as a 'church' on post #7 map.

Can anyone find the address (street name) of the Adult School Social Club as per brummy-lads pointer in post #7 ? Did the Church run an Adult School next to the church ?

I did this list, tracing names and numbers across the years, in 1883 it was a vaccination centre.
