I bet that subway underneath is now a hellish dump frequented by p***heads.

It no longer exists. The council filled it in in the early 1990s. bawl

Those poor p***heads entombed forever. sad yes

It was a thing of magnificence and wonder, with its own fish tank. bawl

Why they let fish have a tank, I have no idea. They could have invaded Rotherham with it. rant

Not really quite right for this thread in that there's nobody in the picture having a good time, but I expect that Butterpops will have fun looking at this picture at least...

Does the car in the foreground have the registration letters "ARF"?

shifty

I would say not. I zoomed in 8x and fiddled with the gamma and everything.

That street and its view reminds me of Hollis Croft in Sheffield before they demolished everything to make way for fancy new blocks of flats.

The 'RF' part of 'ARF' indicates it was registered in Staffordshire, so it'd be quite likely being in nearby Birmingham.

Huge dinosaurs on the rampage and attacking club-wielding civilians at the 1938 Pageant of Birmingham! dontpanic
