Moseley Green Man
by tina_manthorpe.

New groups on Flickr are two a penny but Green Men of Birmingham has a neat snippet of information.

"Green Men are the foliate faces which look down on us from many buildings in Birmingham. As an architectural feature the Green Man was used by the Romans and appears also in India and the Middle East - and in thousands of medieval churches throughout Europe. The Victorians rediscovered the Green Man with great enthusiasm and there are over one hundred in the city centre."
