Situated in the angle formed by Shireland Road with Waterloo Road, The Waterloo is currently (2019) closed and available to let. It's a former Mitchells & Butlers M&B pub, which was Grade II* listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101261644-the-waterloo-hotel-soho-and-victoria-ward#.XRJJ6uhKjcs & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1261644 in 1995, as "An exceptionally fine and near- complete example of an Edwardian showpiece public house and commercial hotel which retains its original plan-form and many interior features, including the unusually ornate and complete basement grill room".

The former United Counties Bank building, Smethwick
On the corner of Cape Hill with Salisbury Road, this rather fine building stands as a bit of a landmark. United Counties Bank was a regional name adopted in 1907, following the merger of the Birmingham District & Counties Banking Company with the Bradford Old Bank. It was later acquired by what was to become the Barclays Banking Group. Aside from this branch, it had operations in Cradley Heath and Wolverhampton that I can find referenced; there were certainly many others.
