The Fairybrain of Brum
Hi John thanks for posting..Me and Tom live not far from these two pubs and we have both said it is such a shame the buildings could not have been used for something rather than just knocking them down..The Beeches really was a lovely building.(even if as a pub it was prone to trouble)and could so easily have been preserved

It's a real shame. The architect of The Beeches was Ewen Harper, who also designed the Methodist Central Hall in Corporation St.

Gone, but not forgotten.
It looks to me as if the central doorway frontage of the Beeches is either going to be incorporated into a new building or its going to be salvaged and rebuilt somewhere else.
I can see no other reason why it would have been left standing like that and scaffolded. Normally it would have been demolished with the rest of the building.
