Old Bearwood


The Birmingham Antiques and Collectors Fair takes place this Sunday.  We went to the fair at the Birmingham Centennial Centre on Icknield Port Road just before Christmas and it was fantastic, a real treasure trove!  Perfect timing for all our Christmas shopping.

We bought some real treasures for ourselves too including some really old postcards of Bearwood, Lightwoods Park and Warley Woods, from Andrew Maxam of Maxam Publishing.
Andrew Maxam has produced local history calendars, written local history books and has an huge collection of old postcards and archive full of old photographs.  We fancy his Vintage Images of Warley Woods book next time. 

The Antique Fair will also be open for business on Sunday 24th February and Sunday 17th March.
