Lyttleton Arms - Balsall Heath Road

Fancy a post-war butty? It is thought that this image dates from 1946 but I cannot quite make out the licensee plate to confirm this. It probably features the name of Sarah Hobson, licensee throughout the Second World War.

I haven't got many photographs of Balsall Heath Road. Looking at the tram lines, I think this one is from the junction of Alexandra Road looking along the Edgbaston section of the thoroughfare. I cannot understand why these houses have been demolished - they looked splendid and solidly-built.

Hi, I'm researching my Great Great Grandparents and they lived at 90 Balsall Heath Rd in Edgbaston but I can't find many photos! Do you know which number houses these might be on the photo or if you have any other photos? thanks so much!

Kelly's lists the pub at 173 Balsall Heath Road up to 1965 but it's gone by 1971. No licensee is given in the 1965 entry.
