Adelaide Tower, Shard End, Birmingham

Shard End is an interwar and postwar suburb in east Birmingham. It was home to nine tower blocks but as of 2015 there are three left. The complex was split into 3 estates: Buckland End (2 tower blocks), Shard End (1 tower block) and Kitsland Road (6 tower blocks). In 2003-2004 the 6 tower blocks on Kitsland Road were demolished.

Shard End is between the massive housing complex of Chelmsley Wood (51 tower blocks) and Bromford (20 tower blocks).
