Photographed from the end of Helmswood Drive, these terraced houses are typical of Chelmsley Wood, a huge housing estate built onto the eastern edge of Birmingham in the 1960s and 1970s but which became part of Solihull borough in 1974. A short way out of frame to the right, Chelmsley Road meets Coleshill Heath Road, and housing gives way to countryside.
