Cornfield Croft, Chelmsley Wood, east Birmingham
These are flats over garages (FOGs in the jargon), one of several dwelling types on the estate. From this and another image it can be deduced that there are four flats in two pairs, each pair served by one street door and stair. There are thirteen garages. The block of flats is Selwyn House off Waterson Croft. It is one of many in the wider area known as North Solihull, of which Chelmsley Wood is part, first appearing on an OS map of 1971.

Subway under the M6, Chelmsley Wood, east Birmingham
Green Lane, a public footpath from Partridge Close, leads to Coleshill just over a kilometre away. The subway is reached through a staggered barrier about 1·8m (6 feet) high, making the height about 4m. The walls are a gallery of colourful graffiti; some of the designs are first-rate.

Subway under the M6
Constructed to allow pedestrians (and presumably farm traffic) access along the footpath that runs from Bacon's End to Coleshill. The iron railings across the path make it 'entertaining' to get a mountain bike through the gateway - basically you need to climb up on top of a set of sharp spikes, and lift the bike 8 feet into the air above you. Such fun.
