Next I have this imposing building but no idea of where it is, some of the notes may suggest it is in Saltey but that is a long shot. Seems to have prams outside the left hand entrance and the figure in the centre seems to have a long gown on. Any offers?

This is a difficult one and if you ask AI to give a pencil impression this is produced. Note the writing it has produced !

My try with AI enhancement. With and without bay windows. I can't seem to get anything in between

Morning Jonob, any chance you could ask your friend Al to have a go at this one for me please? It's a lot better than it was originally but still not too clear.

Many thanks,

Penny

I think they are the famous Birmingham Pecky Blinders. Not a sparrow to mess with.

Oversized starlings! Birmingham was/is famous for them.

The house I grew up in during the 50's and 60's was on a flightpath for starlings flying into the city for the night. The sky was black with them. The city centre at night was filled with the sound of them.
