FBEC members were joined on site today by Val Hart from Balsall Heath Local History Society. We hope Val will be sharing her experience with the rest of the Balsall Heath Local History Society. This will be a long term project and we soon hope to be able to give you details on how you can become involved yourselves.

Our thanks to George from Caring for God’s Acre for her guidance and to Val, Lisa, Pat,  Julia and Jane for their efforts…..in the rain!
