Here, you can just make out the Austin sign which was on a brick-built tower supporting a water tank, and which was part of the original White & Pike printing works taken over by Herbert Austin when he started his motor company in 1905.

The position of this tram indicates that it's a number 71 travelling from Rubery to the city centre.

Longbridge water pumping station, which despite its wonderful architecture which wouldn't have looked out of place as a church, was demolished without hardly a second thought in the 1970s.
