The Grade II listed http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1391280&searchtype=mapsearch Gem Buildings on Key Hill in Birmingham was originally a "manufactory" dating from 1913, it is now a clothing factory and shops. It was built by the architects Wood & Kendrick for the diamond cutters and polishers, Ginder & Ginder. It is quite a modern design for 1913, looking I think more like 20s architecture. The view is from inside the Key Hill Cemetery looking roughly northwards.
