More about Snow Hill Station
 
Snow Hill Station is generally disliked because it is a brutalist concrete building with draughty subterranean platforms that replaced a splendid Edwardian station which was demolished in 1977.

A new entrance to Snow Hill Station was completed on Livery Street in September 2010 so that pedestrians might reach the metro platforms from the Jewellery Quarter without having to cross Great Charles Street Queensway (News Archive 08/09/10).

The opening of the new entrance was delayed until March 2011 so that a right of way enabling metro passengers to cross railway property could be negotiated (News Archive 30/03/11).
