  • Building Birmingham: a Tour in Three Parts of the Building Stones Used in the City Centre
    Urban Geology in the English Midlands No. 3 Building Birmingham: A tour in three parts of the building stones used in the city centre. Part 3. Around the shops from the ‘Back of Rackham’s’ to the Bullring Ruth Siddall, Julie Schroder and Laura Hamilton The name ‘Birmingham’ is derived from the Anglo-Saxon Beormingahām, alluding to the home of the Beormingas clan and their settlement here was probably established as early as the 7th Century A.D. However the centre remained a poor region until the later 12th Century when Peter de Bermingham, local lord of the manor, developed a market centre around his castle, in the area that is now the Bull Ring. From then Birmingham’s economy began to take off and it became established as a small market town. The Bull Ring has also been shown to be an area of light industry at this time. Archaeological excavations carried out during the latest phase of construction in the early 2000s have revealed evidence of potters’ workshops and leatherworks during the 13th Century. This building stone walk focuses on the old centre of Birmingham, around the church of St Martin in the Bull Ring and the surrounding shopping malls. The area demonstrates continuity as a centre for trade and retail but the building materials used here have changed beyond those that would have been familiar to Peter de Bermingham and his family. The area has been transformed over the last two decades, and though the oldest part of the city of Birmingham, it is now the symbol of a new vibrant centre, with the covered markets replaced by glamorous shopping malls.

The office sector will only thrive if those who lead it – represented so effectively by the excellence of the BCO’s membership – recognise and take account of what is around them. As what would once have been considered the norm shifts – be it environmental constraints, social attitudes or patterns or work – so must the provision of office space. Against the backdrop of continuing uncertainty on the Brexit question, it’s perhaps remarkable that the UK economy has escaped, so far at least, relatively unscathed. Yes, the fundamental question of what type of Brexit (if indeed there is a Brexit) Britain ends up with remains unanswered, but we will continue to build some of the very best buildings one could hope to see. All of this is reflected through the BCO’s Awards Competition, where the quality of the projects entered across the length and breadth of the UK continues to rise each year.
