Uncover Birmingham's Centenary Square: A Hidden History Revealed 🎥

A new TV documentary-style video has explored the proud history of Centenary Square at the end of Birmingham’s ‘golden mile’ of Broad Street.

The film focuses on the wide-open space that is flanked on one side by Baskerville House, the Library of Birmingham, the Repertory Theatre, Symphony Hall and the International Conference Centre (ICC).

Across the road and tramlines are HSBC bank’s national headquarters, then The Exchange, the former banking halls which the University of Birmingham has rejuvenated as a new meeting centre and café, and the towering Hyatt Regency Hotel.

And on the square itself is the Hall of Memory, which for 98 years has stood as a memorial to the city’s men and women of Birmingham who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars, and in active service since 1945.
