Sorry, I should have explained. some years ago the site was hacked, and as a result all the photos on it were lost. Many have been replaced , but unfortunately, that was not possible with all of them as some people have left the forum and they are not available. The photo referred to seems to
have been one of those

Hi she posted the comment on May 3rd 2009 but I dont know what year the photo would've been.....this is the comment she made

The person in the front of the picture looking at the meat counter which i presume is Erdington Market is Pat Cattermole. I can name her because she is no longer with us...Cat

Yes I think you’re right it’s the Cross Keys. Thought that was on Sutton Road, but maybe it’s still High Street at the Cross Keys. Thanks. Viv.
 
The Acorn Hotel was at 196 High St
Roebuck was at 132 High st
Cross Keys was at 15 High st, next to it was Station Road, then a Congregational Church
9, 11 & 13 High st was Pickfords Ltd, Carriers. (building on right of Cross Keys in photo.)
