A Brief History
The North Birmingham
Section was formed on September 15th 1959, when
a meeting was called at the Hen & Chickens
on the Birmingham New Road Oldbury.
Officers elected at that
inaugural meeting were Walter Edge Chairman, and
Jim Boulton Secretary/Treasurer. Jim went on to
serve for 38 years as Secretary, and this
service was recognised in 1997 when Jim was
awarded The John Griffith Salver for
“Outstanding activities within the VMCC”.
