Summary
DescriptionBack-to-back court- Birmingham.svg
Back-to-back and blind back houses. Fourteen homes centred on a shared courtyard anytime between 1830 and 1930. A typical court in the Birmingham Jewellery quarter, the houses shared a row of privies, and drew water from standpipes in the yard. For all its disadvantages, there was a strong sense of sharing, and collective child care freeing the women from the isolation of private sculleries on peripheral estates.
