An account of Birmingham's heyday of heavy industry is recorded and the story is brought up to date with the story of the decline of heavy industry and its subsequent replacement by design, technology and computing. The proposed redevelopment of Rover's Longbridge site as a science park is symptomatic of this change. 538 System requirements: Adobe Digital editions. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Working class|zEngland|zBirmingham|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Industrialization|zEngland|zBirmingham|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Industries|zEngland|zBirmingham|xHistory|y20th century. 650 7 HISTORY / General.|2bisacsh 651 0 Birmingham (England)|xEconomic conditions|y20th century. 651 0 Birmingham (England)|xSocial conditions|y20th century. 655 0 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aShill, Ray, 1925-|tBirmingham's industrial heritage, 1900-2000.|dStroud : Sutton Pub., 2002.|z0750925930|w(DLC)2002491083 914 frd00010172
