| Ignore my last comment - wrong pub! Was thinking about a totally different area! thegiant - 6 Jun 2009 20:43 |
| Beowulf, I'm pretty sure it's been closed for more than 7 years. I'm sure it was very popular when the area was inhabited by Irish Immigrants but has declined since the population became predominantly Somalian. It's a real shame to see the demise of wonderful old Victorian boozers. Just down the road from here, also in the "Somalian" district, The Victoria has been turned in to a police station (to deal with the machete-wielding, bus-raiding Somali youngsters) and The Angel, dating back to around 1812 I believe, is being redeveloped into housing. thegiant - 6 Jun 2009 18:02 |
| I passed The Bull's Head every day on my work in Birmingham and I always said I'd go in for a pint, it was a traditional Victorian corner terrace pub. The pub has been closed for over twelve months because I assumed, for refurbishment. The Birmingham Mail has recently reported that it will shortly be reopen, as........... a mosque. All the building work was carried out without permission on probably what was a listed building. Birmingham City council said if they had known what the new owners had planned to do they would not have approved planning permission. It has only come to the attention of the council recently because the new owners have applied for retrospective planning permission for the building. The council reluctantly granted it stating that it was better to have a full mosque than an empty pub. Beowulf - 6 Jun 2009 13:46 |
