Never been to Sacred Heart. Where is it? Up Trinity Road somewhere?

It's located in Witton Road (on the corner with Prestbury Road).

Cheers.

That really is sad news.
It is difficult to see how the economics work for such a large site in that location.

The building itself must cost a fortune to heat, light, maintain and insure - the cost before you've poured a pint must be astronomical.

Even when it reopened the last time it wasn’t as busy as in previous years. It never had a chance really if people didn’t visit on other days than match day. A sad loss to Villa fans and a sad loss for Birmingham.

Who is the owner of the building? Is there a lease still running, notwithstanding the closure? Does anyone know?
