I was born in 1981 and this is amazing. I wish it were possible to time travel back to 1981 and see this myself and even record it all on a 2022 camera.
I used to live on Sutton Hill in about 70 to 73, then we moved to Brookside. Does anyone remember when You could just Walk through Blists Hill , before it was all renovated, and the adventure play park at the top, with slides made from spare drainage pipes and wooden structures to climb?
When I was a teenager we used to break into the grounds of Randlay Chimney and wander around some of the tunnels, scared the s--t out of me if I was honest lol although I tried not to let on at the time!
Sitting in Horsehay right now approximately 100m from the train tracks shed sure has changed lovely to know I'm around an area with so much history it's always been a lovely place and quite posh. Since I've lived here.

This is actually the Stirchley Chimney and nothing to do with the Randlay brickworks.
