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%) http://www.birmingham.gov.uk/Generat...78&EXPAND=1676 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.
