BIRMINGHAM lost many of its architectural gems in the barbaric redevelopments of the the 1950s-70s.
A whole lot more would have been flattened and replaced had it not been for the efforts of the city's Victorian Society, this year celebrating its 40th anniversary.
The imposing Post Office building in Victoria Square, Spring Hill Library and the Grand Hotel are treasures safeguarded by this band of enthusiasts.
Thank heavens they have been around to save Brum from the fools who cannot tell their heritage from their elbow.
