    Can't believe the HSBC building is being built so close to the lovely grade 2 listed Alpha Tower. I bet the staff working in the offices are right peed off about loosing their view!

    I think Foster brothers shop was about there. You can just see The Palace, my old picture house further up.

    High Street Erdington

    The photo was taken more or less where Walter Smith butcher's shop is now, not far up from Barnabas road. Would not see cars parked that way these days either, being a one way street the other way.
