Summary

[edit]
Description

The fountain outside the Wesleyan building in Colmore Square.

The Wesleyan was built in 1988 - 91 for the Wesleyan and General Assurance by Peter Hing & Jones.

Pevsner describe it as a poor attempt at post modern, and very big. Central core with a big pyramid roof, and four radiating wings, like a workhouse. Artificial pink granite facings, angled between floors, like the legs of a huge insect.

From Pevsner Architectural Guides: Birmingham by Andy Foster.

It is also the regional office for solicitors Pinsent Masons.
