Looking towards Bordesley showing the Snow Hill to
Paddington line on the left and the low level Goods Sheds under construction
next to the passenger station. Robert Ferris writes, 'In the caption, the date
is given as circa 1918, but it must be several years earlier as the first
portion of the goods depot was opened by 1914. I would date the photograph as
1910 as it shows the 1909 brick arch-work complete and preparations for the
support of the new ferroconcrete arches in the station viaduct (contract let in
1910 according to the 1916 article)'.
