The River Rea & the Custard Factory, Digbeth
This is a view of the River Rea (pronounced 'ray') looking southwest and upstream from the new footbridge which crosses the river under the railway viaduct, connecting Floodgate Street with Gibb Street (for more on the Rea see Image], which shows the viaduct, footbridge and factory from downstream). The factory was designed by the architects Hamblins for Sir Alfred Frederick Bird, the son of Alfred Bird, the inventor of egg-free custard. The company later became part of Kraft Foods and production was moved to Banbury in the 1960s. Since 1992 the huge site has gradually been redeveloped into a shopping and business centre with a 'creative', hipster ambience; see Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Custard_Factory .
