This remarkable survivor of early-mid 20th century road signage sits, looking rather forlorn and neglected, just north of the roundabout on Oxhill Road. Its remaining arms point east to Witton, Perry Bar and Erdington, although the ones pointing west towards Sandwell, West Brom, Smethwick and the like have broken off.
