Despite the cold, hundreds marched

Despite the cold weather, thousands lined the streets of Digbeth to catch a glimpse of the annual St. Patrick's Parade on Sunday 15th March 2008.

Aside from in Dublin and New York, the Birmingham St. Patrick's Parade is the largest in the world and began just after midday.

The procession started at Camp Hill, flowing all the way to the Bullring, before returning to Digbeth.
