The BBC is to vacate Pebble Mill and move to it's new home in the Mailbox in Birmingham City Centre.

The move in 2004 is part of the BBC's ambition to get closer to its licence fee payers.

The Mailbox is the largest mixed use development in Europe. It combines shops, two hotels, a number of restaurants and bars, offices and the new home for the BBC in Birmingham.

It was formerly the Post Office's main sorting office in Birmingham - hence the name Mailbox.

The BBC is taking 100000sq feet of space on two floors to accommodate virtually all staff currently employed at Pebble Mill.

There will radio and television studios and also a public access foyer from where licence fee payers will be able to see broadcasting in action.
