GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Edit. A detailed discussion about the location of the unidentified pub below is now in this thread here https://birminghamhistory.co.uk/forum/index.php?threads/where-is-was-this-ansell’s-pub.52661/
Further to my post #20, our new member, Toni Partridge, has kindly supplied me with a photograph of the off-licence at number 61 that was run by her late aunt, Emily Lewis, who was also the late widow of my cousin, John George Sheppard.
I mentioned in that post that John George was believed to have died in a road accident outside the Stonebridge Hotel, Meriden, of which he was the landlord until his death. However, evidence has since come to light that he died of pneumonia in Powick Emergency Hospital. My thanks to Toni for the photograph, which is reproduced below.
