If you are looking for places to photograph sulky looking lads
who like to think they can sing, I doubt you'd find a finer place.

If you go through the subway under Wolves station, it opens
out onto what looks like an industrial cloister of white glazed
brick arches. This used to lead down to what was the Great
Western Railway low level station on Broad Gauge Way and
is well worth a look at.

For want of anything better, taken on an iPhone 5S and much
compressed in Photoshop.

I've got to hand it to Daniel Kirk, he had the good sense to be
photographed in profile, makes a change from the semi snarl,
I've got serious attitude problems me approach.

It is indeed JohnM and I've heard a lot of singularly glowing reports of the Great Western.

To use the subway, turn right immediately upon going through the station exit, walk along the side
of the building and you will find a doorway with Subway printed over it.

Enjoying a drop of red.
Even though I still have an Attwoods key fob, I should point out, for some of our younger listeners, that that is the big island at the end of Lichfield and Wolverhampton Roads - where Kwikfit is now.
Oops my bad... for spelling it wrong and for not actually meaning Attwoods Roundabout in the first place.

I meant the tree on the Faulklands Memorial Island.

I tried, but my fingers were so frozen by that point I couldn't work the camera properly! I am planning on doing a few more if we get some clear weather one evening later this week, so I'll have another go
