Doesn't seem like it's open to visitors. Can't expect much, as a tolkien fan I was happy to finally see it for myself. A really nice write up on the two towers is on the birmingham city council website.

Nice to check out if you are in the area but there is not much to actually see. It has fences and barriers around it. You can still imagine how it inspired Tolkien.

Es una estructura antigua, es un lugar histórico, sin embargo creo que no lo conservan como sitio de interés, quiero decir a su lado dentro del mismo complejo funciona un centro médico, no hay señalización para llegar al sito, tampoco información histórica que cuente algo a quienes lo visitan.

Jolie tour mais aucune explication sur place (l'un des avis Google nous a éclairés) et impossible de s'en approcher, c'est clôturé et collé à un centre médical. N'y allez pas spécialement, vous n'en verrez pas plus que sur les photos
