  • Leading the Field
    LEADING THE FIELD THE STORY OF SPORT AT THE UNIVERSITY OF BIRMINGHAM MATT COLE The University of Birmingham has invested its aspirations and its resources in sport from the opening of the university to the present day. Whether for the recreation, education and health of its staff, students and the public, or for the development of some of Britain’s sporting pioneers, the University has recognised the integral role of sport in its work. The investment has paid dividends for over a century now in Birmingham’s role in the development of sporting participation, expertise and influence. Sir Oliver Lodge was interrupted on the golf links to be recruited by Joseph Chamberlain as Birmingham University’s first Principal. His sporting enthusiasm was captured in this portrait for a 1904 profile in C.B. Fry’s Magazine of Action and Outdoor Life. 1900 LAYING THE FOUNDATIONS: TO THE EDWARDIAN ERA 1918 The University of Birmingham was founded at a To these were added clubs for swimming and Lodge was passionate about the role of sport in time of dramatic change for sport and society, golf in 1907, boxing and wrestling in 1909, and, public life and in the University.

  • 2 the Birmingham CITY Centre Extension Scheme
    2 The birmingham CITY Centre Extension Scheme 2.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter of the ES sets out the objectives of the scheme and also describes: • the main features of light rail transit (LRT) schemes; • the potential benefits of LRT schemes such as Midland Metro; • the proposed route and design of the proposed scheme; • the way in which the scheme will be constructed and operated; and • the main alternatives that have been considered. 2.2 FEATURES OF LIGHT RAIL TRANSIT SYSTEMS 2.2.1 What is Light Rail? The exact origination of the term “light rail” is unclear. However, it was reportedly first used in the 1960s in order to avoid the American terms “trolley” and “streetcar” or the British “tram” and “tramway”. There are a number of definitions of light rail systems in existence. However, “light rail” commonly refers to electric railway systems constructed during the 1970s or later. They are characterised by an “ability to operate single or multiple cars [trains] along exclusive rights-of-way at ground level, on aerial structures, in subways or in streets, able to board and discharge passengers at station platforms or at street, track, or car-floor level and normally powered by overhead electrical wires” (). 1.2.2 Key Characteristics of Light Rail Schemes The development of LRT systems in Europe and the USA began in the latter half of the last century, principally in response to the advance of the private car and the consequent increase in congestion and car ownership within cities. There was, as a result, a need for a change in the function of public transport, such that it could offer the ability to: • travel distances longer than buses and traditional tramways, but shorter than heavy railways; • deliver public transport services on a regional rather than an urban scale; and • compete with the private car on a door-to-door basis in terms of comfort and speed.

  • Building Birmingham: a Tour in Three Parts of the Building Stones Used in the City Centre
    Urban Geology in the English Midlands No. 2 Building Birmingham: A tour in three parts of the building stones used in the city centre. Part 2: Centenary Square to Brindleyplace Ruth Siddall, Julie Schroder and Laura Hamilton This area of central Birmingham has undergone significant redevelopment over the last two decades. Centenary Square, the focus of many exercises, realised and imagined, of civic centre planning is dominated by Symphony Hall and new Library of Birmingham (by Francine Houben and completed in 2013) and the areas west of Gas Street Basin are unrecognisable today from the derelict industrial remains and factories that were here in the 1970s and 80s. Now this region is a thriving cultural and business centre. This walking tour takes in the building stones used in old and new buildings and sculpture from Centenary Square, along Broad Street to Oozells Square, finishing at Brindleyplace. Brindleyplace; steps are of Portland Stone and the paving is York Stone, a Carboniferous sandstone. The main source on architecture, unless otherwise cited is Pevsner’s Architectural Guide (Foster, 2007) and information on public artworks is largely derived from Noszlopy & Waterhouse (2007). This is the second part in a three-part series of guides to the building stones of Birmingham City Centre, produced for the Black Country Geological Society. The walk extends the work of Shilston (1994), Robinson (1999) and Schroder et al. (2015). The walk starts at the eastern end of Centenary Square, at the Hall of Memory. Hall of Memory A memorial to those who lost their lives in the Great War, The Hall of Memory has a prominent position in the Gardens of Centenary Square.

It will play a key role in helping to shape the future direction of this great city. Birmingham is a diverse, dynamic and forward thinking city of over a million people. It is the regional capital of the Midlands and is strategically located at the heart of the United Kingdom. The city has seen constant and progressive change throughout its history, embracing new cultures and the challenges of shifting global economies and more recently climate change. Over recent years there has been a transformation of the city centre, including the rebuilding of the Bullring, development of concert/ conferencing and sporting facilities and the creation of attractive public squares and spaces all to the highest international standards. The city will continue to adapt to and embrace change, in order to enhance its position as a key economic and cultural centre regionally, nationally and internationally. Further expansion will see development of a state of the art ‘Library for Birmingham’ the new central library, the redevelopment of New Street railway station and expansion of Birmingham International Airport.
