McDonald's, Parsons Hill .
This fast food restaurant is situated in the art deco building that was once home to the Cartland Arms public house. The pub was named after the local family which owned land in the area. At least this fine building is still standing and being cared for.

Parson's Hill Bridge near Kings Norton, Birmingham
Parson's Hill Bridge near Kings Norton, Birmingham
Bridge No 71 on the Worcester and Birmingham Canal.
The Worcester and Birmingham Canal was constructed in stages between 1791 and 1815. Grain, timber and agricultural produce were carried to the Midlands. Industrial goods and coal were carried down towards Worcester, often for onward transport to Bristol. Pairs of donkeys were often used in preference to horses, maybe because they could easily be put onto the boats which had to be legged through the tunnels near Birmingham.
