HISTORICAL OVERVIEW

Ongoing research; last updated 10 July 2012

This volume continues the historical overview of Selly Oak Park; the earlier years having been reported in the previous volumes and in the book, “The Heydays of Selly Oak Park”. Again the clippings, listed in the column on the right, contain the more extensive detail upon which it is founded.

The formal documents for this period have not yet been researched fully, and so the historical overview has yet to be written.
But read on for photographs and memories ..........

These two photograps (kindly supplied by Allan Buttery) show the shelter (the "Hut")

 in Selly Oak Park, thought to be in the 1980s.
