Roundhouse Birmingham, Grade II* listed building in Birmingham, England
The Roundhouse features a crescent shape constructed from red brick and slate, with two gatehouse buildings added in 1885 near the Birmingham Canal.
Built in 1874 through a design competition by architect William Henry Ward, the structure served as a local authority depot, stables, and stores.
The National Trust and Canal River Trust transformed this Victorian depot into a center for urban discovery through walking, cycling, and water-based tours.
Located at 1 Sheepcote Street, the Roundhouse offers step-free access to public areas and maintains a visitor center with free entry.
The building's horseshoe layout and position between canal and street created an efficient system for horse-drawn cart operations and stock control.
