Inspired by Flatpack Festival earlier thread, I thought it would be interesting to post a thread about The Crown’s @historicengland Grade II Listing by posting the full notification so you can read the reasons why it was listed. It’s not all Sabbath… 1/8

The Crown can 💯 be a thriving, successful live music venue & proper pub but only if the freehold can be secured. Andy Street will you now use West Midlands Combined Authority powers to Compulsory Purchase Order the Crown and work with us, jezc & others to bring forwards a viable, future facing plan?

Good day. This news is long overdue! Well done jezc, so glad we came together on this, Grade II listing is a game changer for this iconic cultural building

Historic England please list the Crown. jezc has written a compelling case as to why it should be protected & the current owners 東横イン/東横INN【公式】 have not touched it since purchasing it in 2014 and it is falling into disrepair BBC Radio WM
