From Bennetts Hill.

New shot of the National Provincial Bank of England from Bennetts Hill. In much better light than last time I got it like this.

A former bank in Bennett's Hill, which opened in 1833. It is on the corner of Bennett's Hill and Waterloo Street, in Birmingham.

This is the pub Bennetts in the former National Provincial Bank of England building in Bennett's Hill. It is a monumental Marston's pub. It was an old NatWest Bank, before becoming a pub.

It is Grade II* listed. It was the regional headquarters for the National and Provincial Bank. It was refurbished by Earplace. The upper floors are offices, the ground floor was leased for the long term to Marstons PLC. The property was sold to Nurton Developents in 2007.

Designed by architect John Gibson.

It is 8 Bennetts Hill and 11 Waterloo Street
