For those that found the pictures interesting these pages from 2007, from a forum where people photograph abandoned buildings and sites show a lot more.

There are more threads on longbridge if you check the similar threads.

The website is generally fascinating, but deeply sad to see places once so full of life, completely abandoned.

I went round Longbridge in the early '70s when I was an art student at Wolverhampton. The guys on the lines looked at us as if we were aliens!

We may well have been...

A previous post about the tunnels that still exist....

A very detailed paper was written in 2007 on The Austin-Longbridge Underground and its Culture. Ten of these subterranean areas were built over the years, the first before WW11 in the expectation of hostilities. They were built by miners from South Wales and as well as being areas of manufacture they were used as air-raid shelters and ARP control centres. Post war, two tunnels were constructed under CAB 1 and 2 for manufacturing, offices and maintenance. In 2007 some had been demolished, others blocked with no access and a few accessible but in poor state. I have no idea what their current status is.
