my wife agrees with you, as she was raised in this area, and reading what you put and looking at the photo again had jogged the old brain cells and she recalls that area slightly..thanks

Hi BaznKaz there has certainly  been a lot of changes but the old houseing stock had had it;s day . I'd say you were bang on with the Citreon  garage.. Major changes have happened to most of Small Heath I lived in Grange Road Most of that's part of the school now . I'm a bit dim with computers the only thing that might work is to download it to a memory stick and try playing through a phone or camcorder or a disc but I would put it up as a question on the forum , there does not seem to be a specific place to put it soany wgere will do .

Here's a short clip about slum conditions in  Bolton Road it says Handsworth on the title but it is Small Heath

Hi, I've been searching for this video clip for months, my mom was one of the protesters.  The link doesn't work, any chance of uploading again for me to view?  thanks.

They seem to have corrected the name from handsworth to Birmingham. I assume this is the clip
