Tony wrote Museum of Science and Industry in Loveday Street (near the BT tower)

I think you will find it was Newhall Street.

 :-[ you are quite correct seeweed, i can't think where Loveday Street came from, thats up the other end of town!

glad everyone enjoyed themselves  :)

lovely photos GB,3rd. looks like a halo around the War Memorial.
Lucky to have a couple of handsome chaps there too.Difficult to believe some people wanted that concrete monstrosity at the back that masquerades as B'ham Library to become listed.

Thankfully it won't be the library for too many more years as they've just started building the new one.  Mind you some people don't like the design of the new one either!
