West Brom is just a great big onion This striking onion dome tops a building being erected on Victoria Street in West Bromwich, photographed here on a very wet March afternoon. The structure looks like a gurdwara or Sikh temple, but is described on the map as a community centre for the nearby Guru Nanak gurdwara. 

On a visit to a gurdwara in Coventry I heard the guide describe the dome over the entrance as a symbolic crown, which confers honour on all who enter, regardless of worldly status (in contrast to the corrupt world that is 'just a great big onion' in the Marvin Gaye & Tammy Terrell song).
