Site of Midland Bank Tyburn Road 40-11-07
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 is the 450 Tyburn Road, sub-office as occupied by Midland Bank in 1963. It was manned daily by staff from the parent branch at Erdington. It had the same sorting code of 40-11-07 as the parent branch.

Birmingham and Fazeley Canal near Birches Green , Birmingham
This is the canal looking east from below Bromford Bridge No 1 towards Bromford Bridge No 2.
The Birmingham and Fazeley Canal was completed in 1789 having been engineered and supervised by John Smeaton. It linked Birmingham (Farmer's Bridge Junction) with the Coventry Canal at Fazeley Junction. It is fifteen miles in length, with 38 locks. An extension to the north-west along part of the Coventry Canal route to Whittington was added later.
