This venue was originally opened in 1866 as one of Birmingham's five free libraries. After being bought several times, it's now the only one remaining, sporting an air of Victorian elegance and boasting years of charm and personality. Although it's over 150 years old, the interior is fresh and oozes with romance containing white walls and skylights.
The Main Hall showcases some of the venues best features such as original Victorian windows and high-vaulted ceilings and a further space through three grand archways for additional room for your guests.
