Many, many thanks to all those who contributed to this post.  I now know I've passed by the spot many times.  These old photos are great and I love the volunteer steeplejacks.

Regards

 Hello Jamys and I apologise for this intrusion, but I only came across these queries about St. Andrew's Church Bordersley now, as I recently bought some old 78 records and music in an antique shop in Wexford, Ireland,  and stuck in between was a "ST.ANDREW'S CHURCH BORDERSLEY CALENDAR, BLOTTER AND YEAR BOOK 1932-33". There is a photo of the church (I assume pre '33), as another person was looking for one , as their relatives worked on the restoration. I could try to copy and attatch (I'm not the best at this), or i could post it to you if it was of any use to either of you.
    Kindest regards,
    Tony.

The church is bottom centre and the spire was removed some years ago-cheaper than a repair.

Hello Tony

I do now have a picture of the church, thankyou.  I've also been in touch with a person who is a relative of someone who was involved in the restoration.

Many thanks
