Village of Stone - Identity for building in wedding photos 1934
« on: Monday 16 January 12 11:54 GMT (UK) »
Dear Forum, Please see attached a series of photos from my Grandmother's wedding circ 1934, her marrige cert, states parish church in the parish of Stone, Kidderminster. I believe that she was married at the St. Mary's Church Stone when studying the wedding photo of the couple leaving church down the pathway. However I do not know where the other photos have been taken and would like to know. There is a distinctive roof shape in the background of the photos. Hoping some local knowledge will identify this location. Regards Jason Harrison, Australia.

My family is from Stone, and my father thinks they are more likely the school building. This is located on the other side of the road to Stone House from the Church
