My husband lived at 71 beaumont road in the 60s and 70s. He should have gone to pipworth but wasnt too keen on school so no one would remeber him from school.

 

He has taken after his dad for a love of cars - his dad used to fill up the feathers car park with zephers and zodiacs.

 

Surprised that no one has mentioned the black path or the plateau?

 

He is still good friends with the fletchers who lived on alison cres and as we dont live far away he still sees a lot of people around.

do you remember a derelict open air swimming pool down there somewhere? apparentley there wasnt much left of it when my husband was a kid. My mum had grown up on manor top and she didnt know of it. I didnt belive there was one but i have found a photo of it in a handsworth history book.
