    In March 1923  in the monthly magazine 'One & All' it was stated that, "The beautiful shield which Mr & Mrs Barrow Cadbury presented to the Union is at present held by Nelson Street. I hope that in the not two distant future Moseley Road will want to know why." Mr & Mrs B. Cadbury were leaders at the Moseley Rd. Friends Institute.
