Edgbaston Waterworks
The beam engine house just coming into view on the left has now been demolished but the other engine house, boiler house and chimney all survive and I believe they are listed.

This is obviously a range of beam engine houses and boiler house with very ornate chimney. I believe one of the engine houses has been demolished.

Edgbaston Waterworks
The water pumping station at Edgbaston was built by Birmingham Corporation in 1862 to designs by John Henry Chamberlain. The chimney resembles a campanile or bell tower in Italian gothic style; it can be seen rising above the roofs of the waterworks building in this photo, and it is a listed building, described at the Historic England site https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1343154?section=official-list-entry . The building in the foreground is not included in the listing. Its distinctive modernist style suggests a date in the 1920s or 1930s.
