English Heritage has unveiled its updated 'at risk' register - and two historic Midland buildings have made it off the list. St Barnabas Church in Birmingham, destroyed by fire in 2007, and the 200-year-old mill in Retford have been 'saved'.
A historic Grade II-listed church in Birmingham destroyed by fire has recovered to become a thriving community hub.
St Barnabas Church in Erdington was ravaged by fire in an arson attack in 2007, but has recovered so well that it has now been removed from the English Heritage 'at risk' register.
The church, which dates back to 1824, reopened in December last year with a special dedication ceremony. It is now a popular meeting place for community groups, and holds regular coffee mornings.
The congregation were forced to worship in other locations while the restoration works were carried out.
