SITES OF SOCIAL SPECIAL INTEREST NO.3

SITES OF SOCIAL SPECIAL INTEREST (SSSI) NO.3

A couple of pictures from the Harbourne street urinal pictorial survey in Birmingham (UK). More written about the ethos of SSSI on this blog site. SSSI No.3 invited people to come and share - experience the only street in Birmingham that still has a still-in-use public free victorian urinal.

BACKGROUND TO PROJECT

The idea of this project was to adapt (some would call is ‘appropriate’) the term ‘Sites of Significant Scientific Interest’ into a personal exploration of ‘social significance’. I therefore began a series of accounts in the city of Birmingham (UK) in which is ‘investigated’ Sites of Social Special Interest or SSSI. Herein are some documentation of ‘events’, gatherings and exploration under the SSSI banner. Enjoy.
