This very important picture captures the historic heart of Birmingham before it was demolished to make way for the Bull Ring. With the recent changes nothing now remains of this area with the exception of the statue of Lord Nelson by Westmacott which sits in the new Bull Ring shopping mall.
The plinth and surrounding iron railings were lost when the statue was put into storage.
Picture size 56cm x 85cm
