Join Solihull Council’s archivist, Tracey Williams, on a one-hour guided walk through Solihull town centre.
Solihull Village: From Cobbles to Concrete will showcase the rapid transformation of Solihull’s high street from a quiet village to a bustling shopping centre. The walk is around 1km and is flat and paved throughout so is suitable for wheelchair users.
The commentary will be via wireless receivers so please bring along your own headphones (3.5mm headphone jack, not wireless headphones) if you have them, although headphones will be available to borrow if needed.

12pm - Return to The Core
12:10pm - Afternoon tea served
During the afternoon tea, archive photos will be shared of Solihull through the decades.
