I would love to talk that kid third on the left he just looks like he has a story to tell all these years later, great pics but what a wake up call for me this is not the Brum I grew up in but for many and some members here it was, my pop started out life in a court I never knew till we talked about this site, only then did he tell me the bath tub hung on a nail outside the kitchen door, thanks folks for the education and the pics please keep them coming.A courtyard picture and it must be 17 Crt Hospital Street because the cameraman chalked the address on the house wall.

These are great pictures. I have family who lived at 13 Court 4 House, Sheep St, Birmingham in 1887. Is there any photos of this address? Also is there any way of seeing who lived here at this time 1887? I know my great great grandfather lived here and his son Charles but doing my family tree there is question over whether we have the right wife.Someone who lived in 1 Court, Stafford Street liked plants. Toy buckets hanging from the door and window frames hold plants. The upper window ledge also crowded with plants.

I often look at these old courtyard photos and wonder what the buildings looked like when they were first built. I've no idea of the building dates but maybe it was before cameras were in general use so there are no such photos.Crumbs oM, what on earth was keeping the house together on post #1,057. It looks as though there is hardly any mortar left either.
