Reminds me of my school trip circa 1955/56 with my Conway 620(?) box camera.
I loved the Cannon Hill Park set up

Recently given a copy of a book published by "City of Birmingham Water Department" called "Elan Supply Description of Work"s. Published in 1908. It contains a very good description of the works, It includes 7 photos, map of the dams etc and a strip map of the works from Elan to Birmingham and a section of the aquaduct. Absolutely facinating.
Have attached 4 photos from the book.
PS: 3 "new" copies of the book are on sale on Abe books for less than £10.
