Birmingham Town Hall

Birmingham Town Hall is a concert hall and venue for popular assemblies opened in 1834 and situated in Victoria Square, Birmingham. It is a Grade I listed building. The Town Hall has undergone a £35m renovation, funded by Birmingham City Council, Heritage Lottery Fund and European Regional Development Fund.

A selection of Philip Payne emergency luminaires from the Architectural range were installed at the Town Hall including the wall mounted 250FC.

The original Philip Payne blade luminaire, the 250FC has been re-dimensioned and re-engineered many times, but the essential design of fixed void bracketry and a demountable gear section remains unchanged, making installation and maintenance as simple as ever. The discreet detailing of the 250FC suits the demands typical of emergency lighting for museums and other heritage buildings. Its discreet profile made it a practical fit for the Grade I listed Town Hall, an example of the kind of listed building emergency lighting work Philip Payne undertakes.
