The body of a mummified man was found in a derelict house at 26 Legge Street, Gosta Green, Birmingham on 12 July 1961.
An open verdict was returned after witnesses at the inquest who claimed to have known the man gave conflicting and confusing evidence. One of the witnesses had claimed that the body was that of his brother but the Coroner said that he was not prepared to say that on the evidence that it was.
