Digbeth at dusk
Digbeth is generally believed to derive its name from 'dyke path'; see this Wikipedia article on the district here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digbeth .
The street named Digbeth descends the hill from St Martin's in the Bull Ring, the parish church of old Birmingham (which is just off to the right of this picture), in a south-eastwards direction towards the River Rea and Deritend High Street. It was one of the first areas of the city to be settled; the Old Crown Inn on Deritend High Street, not visible here, is a rare survivor of the medieval, timber-framed Birmingham.
The picture was taken from the walkway in front of Selfridges, part of the Bull Ring shopping centre.

Edward VIII postbox, Digbeth, Birmingham
A postbox is something that most of us take for granted and rarely give a second glance, unless we have a letter to post. But stop and look at this one closely and you will discover that this is a very rare one which dates from the brief reign of King Edward VIII in 1936. He became king following the death of his father King George V and was never crowned because he abdicated the same year to marry Wallis Simpson. About 161 pillar boxes with Edward VIII's cipher were installed of which about 130 are thought to remain. They, along with surviving postage stamps, are some of the few reminders of this reign. Test coins with his portrait were struck but never issued.
Postbox number:- B5 22. Post code:- B5 5BD. Last collection:- 6.30 pm Monday to Friday; 12 noon Saturday.
