Brilliant! Thanks Mikejee - just where you said .
Mikejee - have just looked up that same corner of Barn St & Fazeley St on Google Street View. Looka a bit different these days!
I lived near the opposite corner of Barn Street, about between the Z and the E of the Fazeley Street label on mikejee’s map. 1950 onward. I remember the building having the wide pavement on the corner as in John Hunt’s photo, and being used by Belling, of cooker fame. Whether for storage or manufacture I don’t know. Don’t remember the frontage looking ‘ex pub’ at that stage, quite industrial then.
I don't suppose you new a Judy smith and a guy called spud from there do you.I used to hang out in the Golden Eagle 1979 ish. So many memories - I was 16 and when the police came in on a Saturday lunchtime we'd hide in the ladies till they'd gone. Also went to Bogarts upstairs -those purple fittings and disco ball lights - felt so sophisticated! had no money but went there and hung about with some bikers - Loz, and some others from Dudley area.
Hi, do you have any memories of the Beehive in around the 1900s onwards? I would like to know if you or anyone you remembers a gentleman by the name of 'Thomas Wilson Palmer' whom I believe ran the place for a bit.my fave watering holes were the Golden Eagle - a rough bikers pub at top of new street - bulldozed down and became extension to post office. Also Bogarts on New Street and Costermongers near Brum market at back of tescos near oasis - well thats where they were if I remember correctly back to 1980s. I also remember when Tesco was the Beehive. Oh gosh I'm getting old:cry:

Soho Hill I think it may have been and around 1908Joe
There are several Beehives. You ought to say which one
Yes lol around 1908Do you really mean 1900s?
Just seen your post. There is a part picture of the Kings Head in Allison Street on the Lost Pubs Project website.Are the any pictures,or information on " the kings head" pub,at 67 Allison street,Birmingham,I think it was demolished about 1906/7.
Thanks MWS, I'll keep looking.I can't see Lombardian Place on the 1891 map but it may have changed names by then. Do any of the neighbouring houses have numbers. If not you could continue to check properties either side for other named terraces or pubs to narrow it down.
It is mentioned in the Bham Daily Post, 4 Jun 1869 in regards a lost dog - The Struggler, Guildford Street, Aston.
The census says The Struggler , Lombardian Place. Which I found using address search here:Not quite sure what you mean by street search giving 6 households with no mention of him. You have the page which lists him in Guildford St.
