Nice photo's Berenice, I like the way the wall damage was preserved and framed, very clever. Were the Zeppelins targeting small towns as well as industrial centers ?

Walsall is towards the edge of the Black Country, a big industrial area in the English west midlands. Nearby towns like Bilston were centres of steel-making while Walsall itself was historically known for the making of saddles, so there were plenty of targets, intentional or unintentional, in that area.
