Much building and renewal work is taking place around this part of town at present, and a distant picture of the church proved more or less impossible due to access restrictions.

Near the east end of Chelmsley Road, Chelmsley Wood
Photographed from the end of Helmswood Drive, these terraced houses are typical of Chelmsley Wood, a huge housing estate built onto the eastern edge of Birmingham in the 1960s and 1970s but which became part of Solihull borough in 1974. A short way out of frame to the right, Chelmsley Road meets Coleshill Heath Road, and housing gives way to countryside.
