One of Birmingham's oldest buildings will host a street food evening next month.

Digbeth Dining Club (DDC) will hold the pop-up event on 27 June in the grounds of Blakesley Hall, a Grade-II listed Tudor farmhouse in Yardley.

DDC has previously held pop-ups at Midlands landmarks such as Warwick Castle and the Black Country Living Museum.

Blakesley Hall, built in 1590, is steeped in history according to the Birmingham Museums Trust.

DDC said it had partnered with the trust, which looks after nine museums on behalf of the city council, in order to put on the event.

DDC runs an annual summer tour of pop-up events across the Midlands, with more than 40 events planned for this year so far.
