Do you see the cobbles on the streets? Everywhere you look, stone & rock. Can you imagine what it feels like to reach down with your bones & feel the living stones? The city is built on itself, all the cities that came before. Can you imagine how it feels to lie down on an ancient flagstone & feel the power of the rock buoying you up against the tug of the world? And that's where witchcraft begins. The stones have life, & I'm part of it. - adapted from Terry Pratchett
You may not believe it that the Grand National was held in Birmingham so it's lucky there is film evidence. You also get to see the horses come out of the previous Register Office (now demolished) and glimpses of the Central Library (ditto).
