Re: England Vs Evesham?
I share your liking for maps, and think ex or enclaves are fascinating.
The land around the area of Hall Green, Yardley, Yardley Wood etc was owned by the abbey at Pershore which of course is Worcestershire, and so the county for Hall Green etc was Worcestershire. Solihull wasn't much more than a "spoil" heap. The original village that grew into Solihull was in the area of Ulverley Green.

Re: England Vs Evesham?
As a young teenager I lived in Quinton and near to our stomping ground, the Quinton Essoldo, is Three Shires Oak Road where the old counties of Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Staffordshire meet, before the advent of West Midlands county.
The West Midlands county was introduced around 1974, at some point prior to that, probably when Birmingham gained city status, the whole of Birmingham was designated to be in Warwickshire.

Re: England Vs Evesham?
Really interesting map that. Very surprising to me that only Solihull and Central and East Birmingham were in Warwickshire. I'll think about a strange border crossing when passing in between Olton McDonalds and the rail yard in Tyseley.
You can see why logically the West Midlands had to be created, which ambulance service do I call if I'm on Gospel Lane for example?
