The Farm
Driving through on the main road, Sparkbrook looks like one of the grottiest places in Birmingham, but it's not such a bad place to live. There are lots of quiet streets, on one of which can be found one of the city's hidden gems: The Farm, the oddly named residence of the bank-founding Lloyd family. This is the rear view.

We're not in Kansas - Christ Church, Sparkbrook
One of several churches damaged in the tornado that hit Birmingham in July 2005, Christ Church, Sparkbrook, was already being considered for closure. Permission was given to demolish on health and safety grounds - but as the bulldozers moved in in June 2006, the church was spot-listed. It was demolished in 2007.

Midland Bank Sparkbrook. Sorting Code 40-11-30
I worked for Midland Bank HSBC for 32 years and spent all but the last two in Birmingham Branches. I am photographing all the branches, or what's left of them, as they were when I joined Midland Bank in 1963. The branches all start with the sorting code 40-11.
This was the 155, Stratford Road, Sparkbrook branch on the corner of Main Street. The sorting code was 40-11-30
