Martin & Chamberlain were responsible for the Birmingham board schools, being made architects to the new Schools Board in 1871 and building 30 schools between 1871 and 1883, using Chamberlain's gothic design and bold visible ironwork. They were the surveyors for the new Corporation Street from 1878.
They designed police stations, public baths and waterworks. Historic England have designated their Pumping Station, Whitacre Waterworks as a Grade II* listed building, being amongst the very best structures by these architects.
In 1871 Martin & Chamberlain were responsible for St Nicolas' Church, Hockley, St Stephen's Church, Selly Park, St Barnabas church in the Franche area of Kidderminster. St John's Church, Sparkhill, built in 1888 is a further example of their work.
