You always manage to find something beautiful in even the most damaged buildings. My husband was a retired Boilermaker. Over 40 years in the steel mills. I know many are anti-union these days, but that pension they fought for is my lively hood now! Travel Safe and Be Well

Thank you for your kind words nana best wishes to you and yours x

Hi Ian. My Good Mate Yet Another Interesting Video Your Work Is Very Good. Please Stay Safe. From Blue.

[@XhristinaMacey]

Cheers Blue, I enjoyed making this one the workmen didn't know I was there as I doubt they'd have let me, such a shame to see this old pub in this state, hope you and yours are well Blue x thank you for the kind words

Hello C Macey in Buurmingam. Cool little covert explore buddy, not sure I could have gone up those dodgy looking stairs, lol. 👍

[@XhristinaMacey]

Berererererererminham lolyep them stairs was well dodge all the toxic pigeon crap too, that crap can hospitalise ya if your not carful worse than Covid-19, cheers for sharing your thoughts man ❤️👍⭐️

This destruction of some of Birmingham’s most iconic Victorian architecture began in the late 50s, and the headlong modernisation plan by the Council led by alderman Frank Price and the city’s chief planner Herbert Manzoni, to quite rightly replace the existing poor housing stock, but who also mistakenly decided to rebuild the city centre by replacing some of its finest buildings with millions of tons of brutalist concrete instead , most of which I’m glad to see, has and still is, finally being replaced itself! Please continue with recording and preserving some evidence of these buildings having existed in the past, and the utter disregard some ‘developers’ have for our heritage! Well done, and thank you!

[@XhristinaMacey]

Agree we live in an age of greed, the beautiful towns and cities. The Victorians gifted us with Blood, Sweat & Tears have mostly been ill treated. The railway infrastructure is one particular case in particular x I just wanna say thank you for watching the videos and sharing your thoughts

[@derelictmanchester8745]

Would mind having that one...on my collection, but I would guess..its not accessible...ace video..

[@XhristinaMacey]

Hi DM x lovey to hear from you x yeah was a proper sneak explore x

[@secondcity11]

Was once the Rose and Crown public house prior to offices hence the ornate tiling. I believe it will restored and form part of a housing complex.

[@XhristinaMacey]

Thank you Peter such a shame it’s been allowed to decay so badly the hole in the roof is quite suspect to me and a lot of the beautiful glazed tiles have been hacked of and sold no doubt, nice to hear from you best wishes

[@secondcity11]

@@XhristinaMacey thanks, I've been aware of it for a long time and always admired the Architecture and scale of it, think of what it must have been like as a pub, amazing.

[@Y_Not1]

Hello my friend. What a wonderful tour. It's so interesting.😎👏👍

[@XhristinaMacey]

Thank you Kiely hope you’re well man 👍

[@atbmobiles3]

Always wondered what this place was. Thanks for checking it out.

[@XhristinaMacey]

My pleasure, nice to hear from you ATB 👍🎥🎵❤️

[@Sn00zeDog]

Beautiful building. Such a shame they tear half of these places down.

[@XhristinaMacey]

There’s more profit in throwing up biscuit tin buildings sadly :( great to hear from you sn00zeK9 ❤️

[@Sn00zeDog]

C Macey and you buddy. I don't always get chance to watch your videos, but when I do. Then I REALLY do enjoy them. They're very informative. Be careful in those old structures.

[@smooth111012]

An excellent video and a great find

[@XhristinaMacey]

Cheers Steve ❤️

[@streetrambler134]

Great explore, spotted this place on Google Earth. The tiles looked great, be safe hun with them doggy floors. 😉

[@XhristinaMacey]

I’ll cop it one day the whole floor will collapse lol I saw it passing on my cycle and couldn’t say no, thank you SR xX best wishes

[@jagboy69]

Once the water gets in, it's game over! This old building had some incredible tile and woodwork. Some of the interior bracing would suggest, maybe they are going to save it?? It's pretty far gone, any word on it's future?? If they tear it down, at least you got great footage of the inside.

[@XhristinaMacey]

Cheers WT yep water causes massive damage ive never fallen through the floor yet but have been close, happy holidays to you and yours

[@jennifermillardX]

The old tiles were lovely. I do hope someone has been taking them to use and not just sell on for profit X Great little explore X

[@XhristinaMacey]

Most likely sold to a salvage yard :( Shane to see the place in such a wreck but least what’s left is being saved xX best wishes to you and yours xXx

[@margaretmacey3473]

Looked dangerous! Lovely tiles and plaster work

[@XhristinaMacey]

Was an old pub up till the 1950s mom would have been a grand place back in the day x

[@margaretmacey3473]

Looks like it’s been used for Union offices

[@stermindelves4251]

Hopefully it’s been restored by now. I always used to park next to it in the 80’s and 90’s. Iconic Victorian structure just behind Bristol street and near the gay quarter. Greetings from Somerset 😊

Hi 👋 from Berwickshire xX I have fond memories of this video x

Thank you Christopher, best wishes to you

[@ash7324]

Did the workers let you in for a poke around or was it covert? Seems like they are in the building with you at times

[@XhristinaMacey]

hi they clocked me on the way out and I saw them checking my cycle out as I was in exploring, the gate was wide open and I just walked in as I doubt they'd have let me wonder around, quite a dangerous place. cheers for watching Ash

[@52hermitage]

I know the Nightingale club tried to buy it when they moved from their Thorp street base but the owner wouldn’t sell.

[@XhristinaMacey]

cheers for sharing your thought dude best wishes

[@alexmac337]

What an amazing place! Some beautiful stuff still left in there. It looks pretty hair raising stuff going in there though.

[@XhristinaMacey]

Thank you Alex

[@harriettparker4195]

Hey I’m local to cradley Heath and was wondering if you’ve ever checked out the old majestic cinema just off the cradley road? Tia, love your content xx

[@XhristinaMacey]

Yes I have hawk cycles own it I got in through an open window and saw the beautiful staircase and set an alarm 🚨 off I’m trying to arrange a permission visit there soon 👍 Thank you for your comment

They are just waiting for it to collapse under its own weight or burns down in a mysterious fire so that they can legally tear it down and develop the land for profit. Bro! I'm in Birmingham too, want to do some exploring together?

[@XhristinaMacey]

Standard behaviour from money driven developers with no regard for history, I’m afraid I’ve seen this all to often. Thank you for watching the channel 👍 best wishes.

[@steviertommoethompson5932]

another fab video m8 you would think these are grade 1 listed buildings its a shame they are left to deteriate

[@XhristinaMacey]

the owners sorry developers should be fined and I am positive it would stop. Thank you for your kind words Stevie

Have you got the address mate?

Hi it’s near the nightingale club in Digbeth

Beautiful building. Would be worth a million in New York or London. Shame that it's been neglected. It would make beautiful flats.
