Birmingham's Grade II* Listed Buildings

Birmingham has nearly 2,000 buildings listed for their architectural or historic interest. These range from the 12th century Church of St Laurence in Northfield, to a signal box at New Street station built in 1964; and from cast iron Victorian public urinals to one of the great Jacobean houses of the country, Aston Hall.

Listed Buildings are graded to show their importance:
Grade I - buildings of exceptional quality (1.3% of all Listed Buildings in Birmingham - including Birmingham Town Hall and Aston Hall)

Grade II* - particularly important buildings (4.7% - including the Old Crown, Digbeth and Birmingham Council House)

Grade II - the majority of listed buildings of special interest (94%)

Document of Listed Buildings: http://www.birmingham.gov.uk/ELibrar...=1083070309470

Grade 2* Listed

As there are so many I won't post photos in one go. Batches might be easier and I think some of these may be worth investigating as I don't imagine they are all photographed.
