The Bond is now a hub for film, TV and other media companies who like the creative character of Digbeth, with some of the spaces designed for events such as weddings and markets. Located on Fazeley Street in Digbeth, The Bond is comprised of five main structures, all of which have quite different architectural characters. Completed in 2022, the primary objectives

were to maintain and celebrate the successful and historic elements, rationalise the internal spaces and improve the landscaping. Brummie comedian Joe Lycett films his TV show, Late Night Lycett at The Bond complex. Photography by Tom Bird
