Is the Angel Stratford Rd still standing?

Does the Angel Stratford Rd junction Ladypool Rd still stand? If so is it the entire building or just the facade or is there scaffolding around it?
 
It is still standing, it looks like there is an exstention being built at the back and the front now looks more like a house than a pub. Its not the best building job i have ever seen in fact it looks a bit of a bodge job. That is my opinion.
 
Yes it is still standing - with an extension that isn't finished. New windows have been installed.

Most old pubs round there have been turned into Asian restaurants. Not sure what the plan with the Angel is though.
 
Thank you, Robert & Ell. It will be interesting to find out how it will be developed. I do hope the distinctiveness of the property can be retained - its quite unlike any other Georgian pub we have in Birmingham.
 
Just get a bus up and down the Stratford Road in Sparkbrook to have a look at it.

I'm sure that sometimes graffiti ends up on the hoardings and the new bricks.

Think the old pub sign is still there.
