      Hi Elaine,
      most of the land in Edgbaston is owned by the Calthorpe Estate. They will develop and build property but do not usually sell the freeholds so they get it back eventually.

    Thank you for putting this on I was only at Greenmore for 2 years from 1969 to 1971 I will be at the reunion on 2nd October so hope to see you there

    It doesnt look anything like it used to but the tall trees along priory road are still there I came to the reunion in 2008 and as you approach the trees it looks so familiar until you see the houses behind

    well done you
