How it all began ...

In 1951, the 大象传媒 acquired the lease for the nine-acre Pebble Mill site. A Model of the plans for the new 大象传媒 building were drawn up and presented to the UK press in 1962. Building work began in 1967.

HRH Princess Anne opened the new Birmingham Broadcasting Centre (Pebble Mill) on the 10th November 1971. It was the first purpose build broadcasting centre in the united kingdom.

The rest, as they say, is history...
