HOUSE WRECKING EXAMPLES

All the examples shown here were photographed in and around Birmingham over the past 15 years. The 'before and after' photos are genuine and show how some of these houses have actually changed. (The photos were taken originally in admiration of the properties, the 'after' ones were taken some time after).

Although some of the photos have not translated too well onto the web they do nevertheless show what damage is being done in the name of house 'improvements'. Some changes are more subtle than others.
