Balsall Heath Local History Society

The History Society at Balsall Heath Carnival 2008

Over the last 30 years the Society has grown from strength to strength and has a part-time Development Worker, Chris Sutton. We also have a Victorian Schoolroom, a fascinating range of publications, some interesting projects and active participation in local events such as Balsall Heath Carnival.

Our monthly meetings are held at St Paul’s Venture, Malvern St. off Clifton Road, Balsall Heath, on the last Thursday of each month.

Why not come along? Visitors and new members are always welcome. We make a small charge for visitors.
