Aerial view of car parking lots in the Digbeth and Deritend area. Photographed between 07.30 and 07.40 hours, 19 June 1959. This view shows the extent of the parking in Pershore Street and Dean Street which is principally due to vehicles belonging to wholesalers, with use made of the derelict street corner of Pershore Street and Bromsgrove Street, whilst the queue of vehicles delayed by those turning into Jamaica Row can be seen to extend past Pershore Street..wk-d1-162
