| I found it a little ironic that the model of the new Birmingham Central Library should sit almost in a teasing position at the entrance to the current building. The building of the new library is controversial, do we need it? Do we need to pay that much money for it? What’s going to happen to the old 60s building? Should it stay? Should they redevelop it? Should it be pulled down? And who is going to make a killing on the new development that will sit on a prime city centre site? Ah Ha! |

| I looked up at what remains of Bournville market when I noticed two shops with this fascia, they date from 1899 and the other 1900. Bournville Market appears today to consist of only these two small shops. Pete Allen of the famous Todays The Day Quiz told me that “Bournville Market was a series of shops, on both sides of the road. the market was the idea of (possibly) George Cadbury. The tram stop on the Pershore Road was at the end of Bournville Lane and so that his workers would not be late/waste time, he introduced these shops. |
