Independent historian. 18th & early 19th century history. Birmingham, maps, steam power and anything else that takes me down a random rabbit hole.
Green Road ford, Hall Green just downriver from Sarehole Mill. I once failed to check the depth, got swept downstream in a Mini and only escaped going over the weir by opening the door & flooding the car. The smell of the swollen river lingered for weeks.
