We've prepared resources developed to support a visit to Lodge Hill Cemetery - They include the stories of some of the 498 WW1 soldiers buried there.
In 1914 there was a firing range, council depot, clay pit, brickworks and workers housing all close by where the school would be built in twenty years.
The University of Birmingham became a major hospital treating thousands of soldiers throughout the war, many returning to the front, some buried at Lodge Hill Cemetery.
Voices of War and Peace host an exhibition including a range of community projects. We also visited Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery for 'It's People, It's History' and the Hall of Memory.
