First match |
not known |
At the time of the England match in 1893, Perry Barr was still a part of
Handsworth, a separate entity to Birmingham. Committee's were installed
and meetings were attended and later in the year, Perry Barr would become
part of the Birmingham City Council and therefore become a part of
Warwickshire too, but this had not happened yet in February 1893.
The
site is now occupied by Willmore Road and Leslie Road. The site of the
Pavilion appears to be in backyard of 77 Willmore Road. |
