Horse Fair connects Holloway Circus - a roundabout of the 1960s Birmingham ring road - to Bristol Street, which leads into Bristol Road. Mosaic murals in the pedestrian underpass of Holloway Circus depict the horse market which took place here in the 19th century. The photo is taken from outside Scala House looking towards Clydesdale Tower, one of the Sentinels - see their Wikipedia page here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sentinels .
