Adderley Park Station
This view is looking across from the steps leading to the down platform to the ticket office building. The small inner city station - the first stop on the line out of Birmingham towards Coventry - was opened in 1860. The Adderley name derives from Sir Charles Adderley who became lord of the manor in the 17th century; it is believed that he built a new manor house, Saltley Hall, that is known to have survived until the 1940s. Adderley's descendants were responsible for developing the area with rows of terraced houses in Victorian times, many of them occupied by railway workers, and the family remained major landowners in the area into the 20th century. They also opened a park, Adderley Park, in 1855 which later passed to Birmingham town council.

Saltley Catholic Church
The Catholic Church of Our Lady of the Rosary and St Therese, which sits on Bridge Road, Saltley. Originally built in 1931 to serve the needs of a growing Catholic population, it was extensively damaged during the war, and lost walls and a large window. It was rebuilt in 1942/43. It is now part of the Archdiocese of Birmingham.

The Station Hotel, Saltley
The sign over the door of the Station Hotel on Bordesley Park Road depicts a jolly fellow enjoying his pint of William Younger's beer. Sadly he can no longer enjoy his beer, or anything else, at this firmly boarded-up old pub. Despite its location on a main road opposite Adderley Park station it closed down probably around 2009, a victim of changing fashion and demographic trends. There are of course many similar pubs across the country that have succumbed over the last 20 years or so, but this seems especially the case in Birmingham's inner eastern suburbs with their significant Muslim community. See Image for a 2015 view.
