custard factory to dixon road

I dropped by the Custard Factory

I looked in to see what was going on - not much

so I decided to walk to my mother's old workplace which I last visited about 45 years ago

from Bordsley Cattle Station GWR the beasts were walked to the slaughter house through this archway and about half a mile further
past this electrical sub-station built with civic pride

BR W Bordsley Cattle Station

from Bordsley my mother walked along this pavement

and walked up this hill to work at Dixon Road Junior and Infants School

Mrs Watkins was deputy head in charge of the infants and with a class of 50 five year olds to manage
