I do have a picture taken in 1953 looking down an arcade at Lewis's called the Windsor Arcade, this suggests that you are looking down from Bradford Passage.
These pictures are from Birmingham in the Fifties which also shows in 1954 the Great Western Arcade looking towards Snowhill Station station. Another 1959 photograph of Temple Row facing Lewis's with a clearly labeled Great Wester Arcade on the left but also indicating that the smaller Arcade on the right has been demolished.
