The Crown_station Street

Barr_Beacon

The Prodigal Brummie
The photograph shows the pub was call The Crown Hotel then. I've no idea when the photograph was taken but I'd hazard a guess at Victorian or early 20th Century. I've seen a lot of photographs of The Crown but none with the bar staff / waiters standing outside.
