Here’s an odd little enquiry from Kathy Hodson of Wolverhampton, who contacted me on twitter on Tuesday looking for the war memorial for Browhills West Methodist Church. The church or chapel, stood I think on Severn Road, Wilkin Estate, Brownhills West, and may have been the one demolished relatively recently – certainly within the last few years.
@BrownhillsBob Hello. Do you know anything about B'Hills West Methodist Church? I'm trying to trace the war memorial that was there. TY

@BrownhillsBob Sorry, not sure. It was off the Wilkin Road I think. Def on that estate. Perhaps it was demolished in the M6 toll works (?)

Does anyone have any ideas about this? Did it perhaps end up in the Church at Silver Street, Brownhills?
Please, if you can help, comment here or BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com. Cheers.
I think this was Brownhills Methodist Church, just off Severn Road, Brownhills West, featured in 2007 Google Earth imagery. It’s now the site of new housing.
