26-50 High Street, Smethwick
This terrace of shops with living space above was built in 1904. The row of gable-ends facing the street and adorned with bargeboards makes a very striking show; the end houses at the street corners are canted (angled) with elaborate pediments topping the facades, and one just can be seen at the far left. See the Smethwick Town Centre Appraisal document at the Sandwell Council site https://www.sandwell.gov.uk/downloads/file/4061/smethwick_town_centre_character_appraisal .
