EPW048059 ENGLAND (1935). Housing development and sports ground off Coleshill Road, Hodgehill, 1935

I believe that though technically correct for the modern location , the title should really be Coleshill Road , Ward End .The large building above and right of the roundabout is the Beaufort Cinema , the building on its opposite corner is the Fox and Goose pub . The view looks east toward Coleshill , about 4 miles away .

I lived on Stechford Road , which is the road entering the photo at top right--Hodge Hill Common is at the junction with Coleshill Road ;Stechford Road runs off Stechford Lane which is the road running right from the roundabouut , and the area was officially Ward End . For completeness , the three roads running off Coleshill Road to the right are Beaufort Avenue , Southbourne Avenue and Westbourne Avenue which all joined Stechford Road .
