Title: Midland Counties Dairy Wolverhampton
Post by: SeaBee23 on Saturday 24 October 15 20:11 BST (UK)

Many years ago I photographed the rather beautiful frieze of grazing cows above the entrance to that architectural gem which was the Midland Counties Dairy on the Penn Road. Alas the site was ultimately to become yet another sad example of buildings lost to the homage to Ronald McDonald.
Would anyone know if the frieze survived the demolition process.

MargP & glen11, thanks for your thoughts. Sorry for the late reply I haven't been on the forum for a while.
