| About Hobgoblin Birmingham The eighth branch of Hobgoblin Music opened in July 2003, at Birmingham’s Custard Factory. The building also contains a branch of the Turner Violins and woodwind specialists Wind-World. The Custard Factory is at the site of the factories once owned by Alfred Bird, who received a knighthood for inventing custard in the 19th century. Over the last 15 years the once derelict site has been taken on by new owners, and now the Custard Factory houses music, art and drama studios, music and record shops, cafes and restaurants, and is also a popular venue. |   Alex, Mark, Noel   | ||||||
