Can anyone tell me about The Tripe House, Digbeth, 1865?
Was tripe an alternative to meat in general?

Wow great picture, must admit I am not sorry I never went there
Well, the lower photo seems to be taken at a different time to the previous one - with the 'rods'. The windows on 23 are open and I get the impression it was part of the Tripe House business, maybe where preparation was done and reasonable ventilation needed. Noticeable the chalk or whitewash writing is on the lower windows in both photos.
i think they are surveyor poles
