Robert, here is a couple of postcards of the Dolphin 1900c on the Corner of Warwick Lane and Green Lane ( Dolphin Lane) the pub was demolished in 1930 and the "New" Dolphin was built a bit further back and one time mayoress of Birmingham Freda Cocks was a licensee in the 1970's
The pub was demolished in 1991 and a supermarket put on the site
