Gas Works near Rupert Street / Walter Street junction, Aston
View from B4144 (as is now) whilst the Windsor Street Wharf goods line (on right) was still intact, but not used. The line was even electrified. The gas towers on left remain intact today Image
The buildings in front of gas towers were demolished later. On the corner of Rupert Street, a Public House has been built since, become dilapidated and then demolished.
Straight ahead can be seen the BT tower in central Birmingham, and to left of this is the tall office block on inner ring-road A4540 near to Birmingham and Fazeley Canal.
