LOCATION
Heralded as a ‘national treasure’ and ‘a place of unique character’ by English Heritage, Birmingham’s jewellery Quarter houses Europe’s largest concentration of businesses involved in the jewellery trade and produces 40% of all the jewellery made in the UK. In 2008 a council report advised plans to submit a bid for the Jewellery Quarter to receive World Heritage site status. Steeped in incredible history, the Jewellery District is a diverse destination and home today to a bustling food and drink scene. The area continues to enjoy significant local investment and unabated restoration, making it an undeniably attractive place to live and work in the UK.
