Birmingham lies along the River Rea in England’s West Midlands, its dense centre and canal corridors growing from a landscape once shaped by small streams and industry. The city became a major manufacturing force during the Industrial Revolution, and its canal network still recalls the movement of coal, metal and goods through the Black Country. In the Jewellery Quarter, workshops and businesses continue a long association with metalworking and jewellery. Victoria Square brings together the 1834 Town Hall and the Council House, while nearby Centenary Square marks Birmingham’s modern civic core.
