Description:Two of the houses in early 19th-century development of Lee Crescent, Lee Bank, are seen here in 1954. Subsequent designation as a Conservation Area and restoration as Birmingham's contribution to European Architectural Heritage Year has rejuvenated this Regency terrace. The complete removal of the eastern side of the street has made it look more like a classic Georgian crescent than it did before.
