Dist:0.2km<br/>This is the only example I intend to submit of the kind of modern buildings now littering the High Street. Some are more attractive developments, but it is all being done piece-meal, hence the present "hotch-potch" of residences covering over 100 years!! The developers seem to be waiting to pounce on each property as it comes up for sale. I do hope they slap a preservation order on the remaining Edwardian residences!

Dist:0.3km<br/>This rather majestic Terrace (Edwardian?) has seen better days, but for how long will it be safe? The whole street has been developed around them, piecemeal, into a hotchpotch of buildings dating from all periods of the twentieth century. Looking around, one can sense the developers are waiting to pounce!

Dist:0.3km<br/>Tall and imposing, early 20th Century semi-detached red-brick houses. Situated close to a similar vintage long terrace. How long will these escape the clutches of the developers? The rest of the street shows random very uneven development for the last 100 years!!

Dist:0.4km<br/>A dying breed; many other similar small police stations have been closed. This one covers Kingswinford, Wall Heath, Wordsley, and Hawbush.....but for how long? The West Midlands Police website states: "the team consists of eight full time PCs, two part time PCs, eight police community support officers (PCSOs) and a number of special constables."
