RF very kindly did this marriage lookup for me.

Having problems working out the address..... my parents think it says Martin Road.... but that looks like a 'W' to me...... pretty certain it is Quinton but ???

Sorry.... should have said....1937.... and the bachelor's address is 5 Henry St, Langley Green, so maybe in that area?
I did find a Walton Road?...could that be it?

Thanks

Walton looks a good possibility to me --
the cross from the t looks more like a dot from an i but the second stroke is too tall for an i.

Thanks Maths girl and MarkCDodd,

Looking at how the letters are written in those other words I'm pretty sure it's Walton too..... but good to have some extra pairs of eyes check it

I think it's Walton Road - still there - it's in what we now call Old Warley used to be in Quinton but now is Oldbury, Warley. You can see it on Google Earth
