Hi, thanks for accepting me as a member.
In my spare time I decided an interesting project would be to digitise the various tithe maps (originally produced 1838—1845) of the area of Birmingham that used to be in Worcestershire, including the land use and names of the land parcels as they appear in the accompanying tithe book (both of these are available to view in Birmingham Library).
This map is a work in progress, and I’m doing bits and pieces as I find time.
Areas mapped so far (page also includes a blog post about the history of each area):
Stirchley | Cotteridge | Brandwood End | Haunch Heath | Kings Heath | Moseley | Balsall Heath
All of the maps produced so far can be viewed here:

I'm currently working on a historic map of Woodgate Valley - watch this space!
Hope this is of interest!
