This is the Old School House, Lickey. Located at the top of the Lickey Hills at the Cross road junction of Monument Lane, Twatling Road, Old Birmingham Road and Rose Hill. The building was offered to 1st Lickey Scout group at some point pre 1976 and was used by them until the end of 2005 when the Lickey Church did not renew the lease and subsequently sold the building for offices. The church is just visible in the background to the left of the building through the trees in the church yard. The aerials on the building acted as a repeater station for local radio amateurs.

Tree in the churchyard of Holy Trinity, The Lickey, bathed in autumn sunlight. Taken in Warren Lane which leads to the Lickey Hills visitor centre. (Note the description "The Lickey" - a peculiarity of this area - similarly the nearby MG Rover factory at Longbridge was always referred to (in former times) as "The Austin")

This trough was donated by Earl Plymouth. It is at the top of the steep Rose Hill which used to be part of the stagecoach route from the South West to Birmingham.

Situated in the graveyard of the lovely Holy Trinity Church, The Lickey. Herbert Austin lies buried just a couple of miles from his factory at Longbridge and a mile from his house at Lickey Grange.
