More about this scene
Situated 4.5 miles south of Birmingham, Bournville was chosen by George Cadbury in 1879 as the site for his new factory and for a model village for his workers. Cadbury was one of the first employers to grasp the importance of the relationship between environment and workplace. Initially 143 homes were built, which were sold at cost price. A 999 year leasing arrangement ensured that gardens and open areas could not be built on.
