"The Bull Ring"
Can someone please settle an arguement. What is the defined area of "The
Bull Ring", what is the oldest 'building' in the area and when was the foundation stone laid? Is Andy Mabbett about, he should know the answers? (Cross posted to groups Andy frequents) No I don't know the answers, but I am witness to some heated arguements. Mike |

Mike Personally I haven't a clue but as regard the oldest building I would suspect St Martins in the Bull ring (Church) at least I seem to remember that's what it is called. -- Malcolm Kane |

Colin When Mabbett was employed by Birmingham City Council, he had his finger on the spot for finding out such information I was seeking. However, the information supplied has been forwarded and whether the arguement/discussion has been satisfied I don't know. It was just that I offered to 'Ask a man who can'. Anybody seen or heard of Mabbett lately? He seems to have disappeared off the scene. Mike |
