Even when the answer given isn't the required one it is still very informative. :yesnod: I've learnt quite a lot through this thread already. It's funny just how many times there could easily be several 'correct' answers to the links with MG.

:thumbsup: Thank you to all who have taken the time and effort to make it such an interesting read.

Very true, I learned about the origin of the name 'Old Speckled Hen' and the supposed burial place (incorrect) of Boudicca under the area between Platform 9 and 10 King's Cross Station, London.Perhaps even Platform 9 3/4, where the Hogwarts Express pulls in. B)

B) I know the name of the road but that has just blown my first two MG links out of the water :omg:

Is that some sort of distributor? Electrical item?

I give up, the road is Foundry Lane, Smethwick.

I assume this was once the home of a supplier for MG

I can't find the link - over to someone else
