Keeping up appearances in Victorian Moseley

Join us at the Moseley Hive for the launch of a new book about Moseley: “Moseley 1850-1900: Space, place and people in a middle-class Birmingham suburb.” For over 50 years, Janet Berry – author of the book – researched, recorded and wrote about the history and heritage of Moseley. There will be an exhibition showing snippets of her vast research. 

At 2.30pm, Janet will give a talk about the book and ‘keeping up appearances in Victorian Moseley’. 

The book will be available to buy during the day at a special introductory price of £12.50.
