Viceroy Close is a 6 storey inter war, inter-locking blocks of flats off Bristol Road in inner city Birmingham. Built in 1937 to a design by Mitchell and Bridgwater in conjunction with Gollins and Smeeton, it is considered to be the finest pre-World War II block of flats in Birmingham. The building consists of slender metal windows and light brown brick, giving it a light cheerful appearance to a large block. The clean detailing of the splayed brick bays gives the effect of a folded façade. The naive sculpture above the doorways is by O'Connor Barrett.
