Description:'The Mozart Works' - Sames' Piano Factory in Woodfield Road. The firm was founded in 1855 in central Birmingham but in 1889 expanded to cheaper building land in Woodfield Road, constructing a vast three-storey factory. Sparks from the nearby railway caused fires in 1913 and 1923, the latter destroying both the roof and the business.
