As a follow up, I've now also added the sheet to the NE of Wolverhampton.
http://ooc.openstreetmap.org/?zoom=15&lat=52.64272&lon=-2.06604&layers=00B0
Looks a totally different place without the motorways!
For those interested in the map dates:
Birmingham
Wolverhampton (North East) 1947
Birmingham (Central) 1947/1951
Solihull 1951
Cheers
Andy
