Birmingham; the Black Country; Brum gets a pretty bad rap here in ol’ Middle England.
“Yam alright, Bab?”
I am when I get to spend the day looking at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.
The buildings alone 🤩🥰

Quick detour whilst in Netherton #BlackCountry to visit Hingley’s slag bank (made the anchor for the Titanic) returned to nature but sadly inaccessible (heavily fenced) and sandwiched between housing and industry. #postindustriallandscapes

Kickstarting the new year with a #MiningLandscape. An Xmas tradition for Catherine when she is south of the border it’s either walk to Cobb’s Engine House, Rowley Regis in the #BlackCountry if it’s dry, or up and down the 1.7 miles of #Netherton #canal tunnel if it’s wet. 2025 was dry.
