IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Bromley Street, BIRMINGHAM, B9 4AN

View of viaduct that was meant to take rail services across towards Curzon Street in the GWR days, but because commercial manoeuvrings never happened. Yet the structures have now, for many years, provided 'homes' for small businesses. View at junction of Hack Street and Allcock Street. City Centre buildings beyond

Built in 1910-11 in the Arts and Crafts style this church is now used as a training centre for young people.

The poster is for a recent exhibition of work by artist and writer Bill Drummond.

Clever recycling technique, turning crushed vehicles into a wall - entrance to yard/business on Heath Mill Lane near to Lower Trinity Street

The sole entrance and exit from Heath Mill Lane. The street art seen here is by Midlands-based artist Kid30 (a.k.a. smallkid) who has been creating graffiti for well over a decade. He is well known for his cleanly painted bold characters. Whilst his unique and instantly recognisable bold style is prominent on the some of the UK’s streets they have also been seen as far afield as Melbourne, Toronto and Barcelona. Kid30 is also a member of the highly regarded Oxygen Thieves crew and Shrunken Heads continuing to push himself by bringing his style to new areas of design, working not just on walls, but also on maps, canvas, wood and found objects. He endeavours to promote the value of the art form throughout outlets such as commissions, murals, youth workshops and exhibitions. #kid30shrunkenheads (http://kid30.smallkid.co.uk/).

From the train, I have often wondered about this incomplete viaduct. Its story is related at Image The view is across premises in Allcock Street with East Birmingham beckoning the photographer beyond. Snapped from a Birmingham-bound train. Another view of the viaduct is centre-left in Michael Westley's Image

The church was built in 1920 to a design by Arthur S Dixon, in a Romanesque style, and is now described as 'St Basils Centre'; it was Grade II listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1289680 & https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101289680-st-basils-centre-for-detached-youth-work-ward in 1982, at which time it was operating as contact centre for 'detached youth work'

Self explanatory street art. Bromley Street can be glimpsed in the distance.
