Thank you very much for giving us this information, and of course Bob Chinn From 1930 Kelly's

Yes I saw the reply on facebook, see attached 1950's map, and could this be the 31-33 house still standing, I think 37 would have been a police station, and the house was on Lichfield Road, Shelfield, Walsall between New st & School st.

I have found some info on Licensees of the Turks Head William James Jones (1905 – 1912); William Thomas Evans (1912 – 1915); William Henry Cave (1915 – 1929); Wallace Weir (1929 – 1931); Charles Victor Mycock (1931 – 1934); Frederick Henry Vaughan (1934 – 1935); Herbert Brown (1935); Bernard...

As pjmburns says directories are rare after 1940, the next one I have is 1955 where it shows Chas. Gregory was the publican. Do you have publican information for 1861-1915?

1940/Fras David Fleming/../../../Kellys Directory

Highgate Place name never changed

On 1917 map it's Oughton Place 1930 Kelly's says Oughton Place On 1937 map it's Oughton Road

Perhaps it could have been at 101 Kyrwicks Lane, Melsom products Ltd, Imitation Jewellery manufactures, front of which was Bourne W. hardware dealer. (see red dot on 1956 map)

Primrose cottages are shown on this 1889 map, of Oughton Place, Camp Hill, Kyrwicks Lane is vertically on the right hand side.

Kelly's 1930

Looks like No 5 is right hand side of centre house here, houses numbered 1-10 from right

According to Kelly's 1967/68 at 24 Showell Green Lane there was City Linen Services Ltd, towel hire service.

Taken outside Villa Park

A friend of mine, sadly no longer with us built these models, and exhibited them at a engineering exhibition in 1993.

With a little extra

Pauline, I have no doubt other can do a much better job, but here is an attempt from me.
