Looks to me like the Longbridge works was never traced into OSM, at least there
is nothing present prior to May 2010 and only the undemolished ones a month
later (added by Brian).
Stu, if you need to create the building outlines I can send you a rectified
scanned map showing them.
When I worked at the University there was chatter about a model mine
underneath the Edgbaston Campus that was used by the now defunct School of
Mining, also that the School of Physics used the tunnels for a minor
branch of research for the Manhattan Project.

Hi Andy
Is it technically the Chamberlain Memorial Clock? If so you could add the
tag historic=memorial. I debated whether to add this originally but decided
against it as the thing really is a clock physically and functionally- but
that's just my opinion

Hi Brian, the mining tunnel is certainly true - when I was a student
there was a ventilation shaft into it just behind the Guild. I'd guess
the entrance into it was destroyed when the multi-story car park between
the Guild and the Gun Barrels was built.
There were also rumours of steam
Yeah I was thinking the same when I drove to work this morning. Shouldnt
make a habit of it though :-p
I'll put a tweet out.
