Taken from the junction of the A4040 Linden Road and Mary Vale Road, this view shows on the right the Bournville Village Trust almshouses which were intended for, but not exclusively so, for former Cadbury workers. These were paid for by the rents of 35 houses built nearby at the same time in 1897. The Bournville Village Trust was set up in 1900 to own and administer the Bournville Estate.
