Bradfield House, Greenvale Avenue, Sheldon, Birmingham
This is one of two similar blocks of flats in a municipal housing estate (the other is Greenfield House). They are of an unusual design having two longer wings and one shorter wing. There are six floors containing 30 flats. When it came to numbering, someone at Birmingham City Council was of a superstitious nature. The flats are numbered consecutively from 1 to 31 except that there is no number 13. Bradfield House straddles the gridline between this square and the next one west, SP1584. In this view both wings are in this square except that they meet in SP1584.

Footpath between Cranes Park and Berryfield Roads
Locals call this a gulley. I've also hear jitty, ginnel and snicket elsewhere but most people understand 'alley'.

Mapledene Primary School, Sheldon
When this school was built in the 1950s, Birmingham Airport was known as Elmdon Aerodrome. It was tiny and air traffic was very light. There's very little between the back of this school and the main runway of Birmingham Airport now. Living in this area, the children may get used to the noise.

Access point to country park, Greenvale Avenue, Sheldon, Birmingham
This sturdy-looking structure is presumably intended to restrict access to the parkland to pedestrians (including mums with children in pushchairs). Areas of land like this often attract people who ride off-road motorbikes.
