Gilders Yard vs The Goodsyard
Hi all, my partner and I are moving to Birmingham and we’ve never lived here, so we don’t know the area at all. We’re choosing between two flats in the Jewellery Quarter and would love some local knowledge.
The two options are Gilders Yard on Great Hampton Street and The Goodsyard. We’re happy with the flats themselves, so we’re really just trying to work out which spot is nicer to live in. We slightly prefer Gilders Yard, so the more information on that the better!
If anyone has lived in either, or knows the areas well, we’d be really grateful for any thoughts. Do they feel safe, especially walking home in the evening? Are they noisy, or are there any streets or times of the week to be aware of? And is there anything else you’d want to know if you were in our shoes, like the building, the management, or the surrounding area?
Any honest opinions are welcome, good or bad. Thanks!
