Brook Farm Walk, Chelmsley Wood, east Birmingham
Probably planned in the late 1960s, the estate has a variety of dwelling types and many small greenspaces with trees that are now mature. The place feels like a reasonably spacious leafy suburb.

Not a motorway to be seen
A small BMX-jump park on a recreation field at the edge of the housing estate. This is one of only a couple of photos in this square that DON'T feature the M42 or the M6. Or both.

The eastern edge of Chelmsley Wood
The very end of Yorkminster Drive (foreground) is quite rural in character, with a park on the left and agricultural land on the right. However, it is one of the distributor roads serving the eastern end of the colossal Chelmsley Wood housing estate; two of the tower blocks near the middle of the estate can be glimpsed in the distance on the left.

Footpaths near the A452 Chester Road, Chelmsley Wood, east Birmingham
It is believed that there was once a subway here for residents north of the A452 to reach shops and schools but it was blocked up. Currently there is a light-controlled pedestrian crossing which mum and children are heading for.
