2. Allison Street
Just off Digbeth, Allison Street ha (has?) organisations intent on improving the environment and way of life of the city, including Friends of the Earth (the central building shown here) and Pushbikes. There was, I remember, a secure parking facility for the bicycles of shoppers and visitors to the city, also a photographic processor that was held in great regard by its customers.

9. Sarehole Mill
South Birmingham, UK This old mill and the adjacent mini wilderness of Moseley Bog were frequented by the author J R R Tolkein and it is said to be the inspiration for some of the locations in his famous publications, The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings.

16. Solihull
Taken in the days when Solihull was a pleasure to visit. I last went there ten years ago, when it had become so anti-motorist that is has ceased to exist as far as I'm concerned. Maybe I'll go some time in the future with my Senior Citizen 'bus pass...

28. Barn Farm in the snow
Sutton Coldfield
Not far from the back of the former Sutton Army Barracks, this used to look like a thriving little farm but I later found it in a sad state of dereliction. I read that it is to be used by some youth organisation. Update Jan 2008: It has now been demolished and St. Giles' Hospice built upon the site.
