Highgate Park, looking towards central Birmingham
There are few green spaces in central Birmingham, and Highgate Park, which is well used by local people, comes as a pleasant surprise.
The castle-like structure to the right is Rowton House, built in 1903 to designs by Harry Bell Measures. Rowton Houses were built in British and Irish cities in a programme founded, and funded, by the philanthropist Lord Rowton to provide cheap and sanitary lodgings for single working men. The Birmingham Rowton House offered bed cubicles for 6d per night and could accommodate 819 men. The workhouses.org.uk site has articles on Rowton Houses https://www.workhouses.org.uk/Rowton/ and on the Birmingham house https://www.workhouses.org.uk/RowtonBirmingham/ . It was refurbished in the 1990s as a modern hotel, but had closed by 2022 when this photo was taken.
