Building with Staffordshire knot
This unused building, which proudly carries the Staffordshire knot on its facade, was obviously built in the days when Walsall was part of Staffordshire, not the artificial and meaningless construct created in the 1970's now called the 'West Midlands'.
Mark Powell adds, "Former drill hall of the 5th battalion South Staffordshire Regiment Territorial Army. Later a night club called the fifth."

Casino & Tamebridge Tower
This grim looking casino close to Walsall town centre is overlooked by the even grimmer Tamebridge Tower office block. It was from the top of there I took some of my other Geograph images overlooking Walsall and St Matthews Church.
