EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Harborne Bus Depot in south-west Birmingham, as it appeared in May 1926. Located off High Street on Serpentine Road, the depot was a hive of activity during the 1920s, an era of innovation and progress. The image showcases the entrance to the depot, where buses would come and go, transporting passengers to their desired destinations. The Ironite Flooring, recently laid by the City Corporation, adds a touch of elegance and durability to the space. The flooring, a popular choice during the 1920s, was known for its resistance to wear and tear, making it an ideal solution for high-traffic areas such as bus depots. The photograph captures the essence of the 1920s, with its distinctive architectural details and the classic design of the buses parked outside. The era was marked by a sense of optimism and modernity, and the Harborne Bus Depot was no exception. The use of the latest technology and materials, such as the Ironite Flooring, reflected the forward-thinking attitude of the time. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the history of public transport in Birmingham during the 1920s. It serves as a reminder of the important role that bus depots played in connecting communities and bringing people together, long before the advent of modern transportation methods.
