It is the Green Man, 140/141 Summer Lane. In the 1903 Kellys , John Shaw is at Green Man & W Tennant, incandescent gas mantle dealer is at 139 . Neither are there in 1900 edition. Both continue in Kellys till 1921 edition, but John Shaw leaves (according to electoral rolls) between 1922 & 1925. William Tennant continues till later. Therefore photo was taken between 1900 and 1924
