DescriptionOffice block, Banner Lane - geograph.org.uk - 1553736.jpg
English: Office block, Banner Lane. This 17-storey tower block was built for Massey Ferguson (later Agco) in 1965 by W H Jones Ltd (Costains), architects John H D Madin & Partners, Birmingham. The 1930's Massey Ferguson factory buildings which stood behind the tower have been demolished and new housing is gradually taking its place. The tower block stands empty at the moment and its future is uncertain.
