| Description | This material relates primarily to premises in what is now the centre of Birmingham, in the area around Steelhouse Lane and Old Square, but also includes papers relating to property at Saltley and Duddeston. Much of this property appears to have been acquired by James Farmer, but was later transferred to his business partner, Samuel Galton, following Farmer's bankruptcy. Some deeds contain references to properties in Somerset which had come into Galton's possession. |
