Hi Malc, I still live at number 64, been there since 1960, (our next-door neighbours were Mr and Mrs Humphries, maybe you remember them)? raised 4 children, they went to Bromford Road Infants and Junior and then both girls went to Hodge Girls (Grammar School as it was then), and the boys to Marsh Hill Tech. Both local schools have changed dramatically !!
As you say, Millington Road is`nt the quite peaceful road it was back in your day and even since the 60`s when we moved in it was still a lovely road, not many cars - we certainly could`nt afford one and borrowed my sisters to take us on our caravan holidays to Tenby. Most of our old neighbours have moved out, some out of Birmingham, but somehow we seemed to have missed the boat, however we count our blessings and are too old now to contemplate a move.
Regards,
Marshey
