Walk and Talk with Ian Jelf

One thing you should always do in any city is to look up! And nowhere is that more true than in Birmingham where – despite the City’s (unfair) reputation for concrete and glass – many buildings have the most amazing decoration ignored by passers-by.

So come with us for an unusual “Bite Sized Birmingham”, where we find a surprising number of carved “Green Men”, classical figures, Victorian imperialism and breath-taking confidence in stone and terracotta.

As well as comfortable footwear, you might like to bring a pair of binoculars or even a camera with a telephoto lens to get even more enjoyment out of some often forgotten building details.
