Hi Stretchie

Where's my post has gone about B'ham ...   I replied to your request the other day but it has vanished!! Anyway the long and the sort of it was that I don't know anything much about St Martins ... the last time I remember noticing the church was at the same time as watching the steam trains coming into Moor St station ... Must have been one of the last ones ... honest ... now I am showing my age 

Now to the most important bit of news ... Causeway Meadows Farm ... I took the dogs for a walk by the canal today and took a detour home and grabbed some photos of the farm as promised. I have put them up on parishmouse for you. They are the original size photos so will take a while to load on the big pics as they are up to 4mb in size ... but I thought you may like the originals for your files.  Let me know if you want them smaller ... it is no problem.  The link to the photos is on the main page under "Other Links" and is called Special Requests Gallery. As a taster here (I hope!) is a sample:

Worcestershire / Re: Nash- mostly Dodderhill area

Hi Judy, I noticed in your list of names the surname Sherwood ... are you researching the Worcestershire lot or by any remote chance the ones from Shropshire?

BTW I think i photographed some graves for Nash when I did St Augustine, Droitwich which was the parish church for Dodderhill.

Also if I remember correctly there are a lot of Sherwoods in White Ladies Aston and also a few in Kington near Inkberrow but I still have to put those graves up on the site.

Gloucestershire / Photos of Ashchurch Online

Photos of St Nicholas, Ashchurch are available on-line at www.parishmouse.co.uk. The site is totally free and allows you to download copies of the photos for use in your files etc. Also includes some graves which can be searched for by name.

Hope you enjoy the site as it is my way of putting something back into our hobby.

Hi, it is an old farm. I just remember seeing the name on the farm gate and saying to my Mum who was with me that one of my pals from school used to live there I thought.  Anyway will probably be down that way before September so will take a look for you and see what you can see from the road etc. and if I can remember I take a photo for you and then you can see whether it is worth visiting.  Mind you if you don't know the area you could get seriously lost round those lanes as road signs are not a priority! I don't think much has changed since the 19th century including the horse muck on the road  :)

Byetheway, I noticed in another of your posts that you are researching the name Farmer in the area of Dodderhill. I have recently photographed Dodderhill Church and a lot of the graves (still got a few more to do) and I think I can remember the name Farmer on a few ... might be wrong though as you go a little cross-eyed after a while.

All the best
Sally

Thought you would like to know that Causeway Meadow Farm still exists today or certainly did when I passed it the other day when I was down that way taking photos for the website.

All the best
