Livery Street
Livery Street runs to the north of the city centre into the Jewellery Quarter; the historic centre of Birmingham’s jewellery trade that still thrives to this day. Livery Street and the adjacent Constitution Hill are quieter areas with cheaper accommodation options for those looking to explore the less showy and more historic landmarks of the city centre, such as St. Paul’s Church and Birmingham Cathedral.
