    Default Hello.............

    Hi I'm brushead.

    I am new to this site and I guess the reason for me joining is the continued loss of history in my town.
    We have had a spate of spontaneous combustion over the last 2 years, which has seen the destruction of three of our victorian buildings in Walsall. Buildings that I grew up with and became part of my life.
    I believe that towns and cities need to keep their links with the past and preserve their history.
    Hope to talk with some of you soon.

    Hi Nice to meet you.

    That would be the huge clothing factory that used to run along the length of George Street opposite the Asda.

    That would be this one then I think..



    can't remember the name of it off the top of my head and to be honest didn't think it was that long ago but I guess it must be as it was around the time that I used to eye up the flats they were knocking down by Pleck rd..
