Badly needs up dating

It's a shithole now with vermin everywhere

Lived in Erdington my whole life it’s beautiful

I had my first kiss under that archway in the parish church

the ‘now😊’ is becoming the then.

Came to visit my grandparents in Edwards rd. This i believe is the fire station on the corner. Dads car had a hole in the exhaust and i collapsed on arrival. I still, albeit rather foggily remember the guys from this fire station saving my life.

Always thought from a distance the painted man on the ladders of sign service always looked so realistic plus now the cross keys pub is closed at 0.10, the lad in the Lane pub is now closed and derelict at 0.32

My nan and grandad lived in new street erdington

Thanks for bringing us to the past!

Memories come back in a flood! I lived in Erdington (Hillaries Road) for many years from early 1950s to mid 1960s, went to Slade Road School (later Handsworth Grammar) next to the Star Cinema and the Brookvale Pub. Erdington High Street played a big part in my teenage life, it had 2 cinemas, the Palace was one I can't remember the name of the other but do remember that I saw The Dambusters there. When I first went to the Carlton Club (later Mothers) over the furniture store opposite the church The Moody Blues and Carl Wayne and the Vikings were the regulars and anyone remember Pandora's on Orphanage Road? Hours were spent making a coffee last in the Griddle Inn and the Pop Inn and we bought our records (vinyl) from Redifusion at 6 ways and the Music Box. In my mind's eye it's so clear, Burtons Snooker Hall opposite The Acorn and Gardeners Milk Bar on the corner, the swimming baths, Woolworths the market opposite etc. etc.I even lived for a while in Harrison Road off the High Street, I loved it, but what a disappointment to see it now, all it's former charm gone - That's life I guess!

Closing down the pool is a crime against the people of the town. The local authority should be ashamed of themselves.

Erdington is being ruined full of chavs and racist elder brummies the place is going downhills abit.

I live in Small Heath & I'm planning to cycle to Erdington today.

Well that Audi driver is definitely at fault because he went the wrong side of the road and caused the accident with the bus

I live around the corner from station road, happy days then, now you can't risk driving through.

Just thought I’d look it’s been a while since I’ve been there Awesome!

An ancient prophecy foretold of a place that was truly more bostin' than many other bostin' things. This place would be so epic, t'would spawn not one, but TWO Poundlands ! The Hanging gardens of Babylon and The Grand Canyon pale into insignificance in comparison! That place is ERDINGTON !!! 🤔 " Ees right yer know, it's really good. An' the number 11 guzz there" !!!

I used to work at abbey stone and timber !!!
