Jamia Masjid Anwar-Ul-Uloom
This is the front of Smethwick's impressive new mosque, still under construction, on Windmill Lane. The Jamia Masjid Anwar-Ul-Uloom Trust website makes this observation: 'The need of a mosque in Smethwick to represent the Muslims is paramount; around us in Smethwick other faiths have their places of worship in the form of Gurdwaras, Temples, Synagogues and Churches. Seeing this we propose the project of JAMIA MASJID ANWAR UL ULOOM to the public of Smethwick'. The mosque's external architecture is described as 'on a theme of a purpose built Mosque' with four minarets, a dome, window arches and religious calligraphy. The style is in marked contrast with the building opposite, reflected in the window.

The former Mecca Bingo Hall
A potted, and slightly personalised, history of the building is at Image, but it was originally built in the late 1920s as The Rink Cinema (in honour of a former icerink on the same site). It changed to The Gaumont, and then a Mecca Bingo venue from the mid 1960s, and was Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101384947-mecca-bingo-club-soho-and-victoria-ward#.XRMRuOhKhPY & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1384947 in 2000. As the image linked above suggests, it's now available for hire, social events, weddings, discos, children's parties etc.
