Phil & Steve,
Thanks for our comments and photo's. The one of the Pelham brings back memories when every Saturday morning I would travel there from the 'Gate' on the tram with my Mother, who always bought her grocery (plus ration coupons) from Wrenson's. Which was on the corner of Alum Rock Road and Sladefield Road, which on your photo is behind the forked tree (to the left of the lorry)
It's the first time I have seen this particular photo of Nechells Place, can anyone recall the name of the tall factory on the left?
The photo of St. Saviour's Church is also new to me, with my junior school (St. Saviour's) having a strong connection with this church, I recall every Thursday morning the whole school would march there for the weekly service.
Harping back to St. Saviour's School I am quite surprised how difficult it is to locate any photo's. I have written to the new school build on the existing site, and the Birmingham Diocese that oversee Birmingham's Cof E School's, sadly neither have replied. I have also searched the archives at the Central Library.
