Thank you Colin, it is incredibly fascinating seeing the ring road being built but also heartbreaking seeing so many buildings demolished. I'm aware there were a lot of run-down properties around Hemplands, Queens Road, etc. This is a fuller version of the video I have but I notice there's a chunk missing at the end, and I'm sure there's a longer version still. I have an old 1950s map of Stourbridge. Presumably all plans, etc. are in the Archives?

Colin did you ever live in Brierley Hill, around the late 70s?
