Colley Gate, Cradley, West midlands

Post by Warp »

Hi all,

I would like to find some pictures circa 1900-1970 of Colley Gate, with special interest on a plot of land now called Juniper Rise which is at the end of Two Gates Lane and backs onto Colley Gate. In the late 1980's this was waste ground unitl they built the apartments on there in the 90's, I understand this did have house on before it became waste ground and would like to find some history and pictures of it.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I'm also from Colley Gate.... would love to see any photos of an old windmill, which gave its name to Windmill Hill if that's possible?
