We shall now close our remarks on this extensive
and most remarkable manufacturing town by directing our readers' attention to the following objects which are deserving of notice, but for a description of which we have not space in this edition.
Nelson's Monument, situated in High-street.
The Old Roman Road (Icknield-street), now Monument-lane. At Sutton Coldfield Heath, a place about seven miles distant, this road may be distinctly traced for three miles; it is well worthy of a visit.
Perrott's Folly, Monument-lane.
The Parthenon, in New-street, and the group of
buildings lately erected on Bennett's Hill.
