Peace Garden, St Thomas's, Bath Row
On site of former St Thomas's church there now stands a peace garden. Bordered by Granville Street, Bath Row, Ridley Street and Washington Street.
Robert de Lloyd published the following in 2000:
St Thomas's church was one of the two Greek revival churches in Birmingham designed by Rickman and Hutchinson. The Church, which had been refitted in 1893, was largely destroyed by enemy action in 1940, but the tower and the west porticos are still (1961) standing. http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/WARWICK/2000-03/0952294736

Located on the corner of Upper Gough Street and Marshall Street. Some time after this photograph was taken this public house closed. It re-opened in the summer of 2014 under the new name of the Keg & Grill. As the name implies, food is available.

The Gough Arms (2) - sign, 52 Upper Gough Street, Birmingham
The Gough family were presumably local landowners as there are at least two streets named after them, as well as this pub. The pub is now known as the Keg & Grill and therefore this sign has been replaced.

Birmingham Chinese Evangelical Church (BCEC), 14 Upper Gough Street, Birmingham
The church's website says:- "The BCEC is an Evangelical Church that believes in the authority of scripture and the divine nature of the triune God. Our beliefs are summarised best in the Apostle’s Creed". The location is not far from the city's Chinese Quarter. Every week separate services are held in English, Cantonese and Mandarin. The church also attracts non-Chinese worshippers.
The church was founded about ten years ago and is one of only three Chinese churches in the city. The red shutters over the door and windows can be fully closed when the building is not in use.
