[1] The Birmingham Workhouse Infirmary was a workhouse constructed in 1734 on the site of the present day Coleridge Passage in the city centre, now opposite Birmingham Children's Hospital.

[3] A new infirmary building, built to increase the capacity of the old one, was constructed between 1850 and 1852 under the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834, to designs by John Jones Bateman and G Drury.

[1] It was built in the Winson Green area, to the west of the city centre.

The main entrance building, though derelict, survived until demolition in September 2017.

[1] Despite its age and social significance, calls by the Victorian Society and Birmingham Conservation Trust, for the workhouse entrance building to be listed, were turned down by English Heritage in 2010.
