The Warwick Bar Conservation Area straddles the Digbeth and Eastside areas of central Birmingham.

It includes sections of both the Digbeth Branch Canal and the Birmingham and Warwick Canal and their associated basins, locks and wharves.

The area surrounding Warwick Bar at the junction of these two canals features several listed buildings, including the Gun Barrel Proof House (circa 1813), the Geest Banana Warehouse (1840) and the Bond Icehouse (circa 1850).

In Digbeth, south of the Warwick Bar, the designated area includes an early 20th industrial townscape dominated by the former Typhoo Works.

In Eastside, north of the Warwick Bar, the designated area is restricted to a narrow canal corridor that broadens to include the Belmont Works (circa 1900) but then tapers at the Ashted Locks on the north side of Jennens Road.
