Terra cotta faced Birmingham Law Courts in Birmingham, England

I was watching a show called Doctors, a BBC series, and they showed the trial of one of the doctors and it took place at Birmingham Law Courts. The sculptor for the figures was Harry Bates and he also did the sculpture Pandora. The building knocked my socks off, it was so stunning

Birmingham Law Courts

The Birmingham Law Courts, at the end of Corporation Street, are within easy walking distance of the city centre. They must be counted among the most outstanding buildings in terra cotta in the country.
