This is the only photo of this part of Stafford Street I 've ever seen opposite Harris and Sheldon,Gilmans store extreme right, and our sign shop arrowed.
Photo from BIRMINGHAM, THEN AND NOW by MARK NORTON.
I do like the new library design wise, but not what they have relegated it to, as a matter of interest I went in the cafe yesterday,(opens at 8 am) cheese and tomato toastie and a coffee £6, but it was nice.
I think that the letters with joins in are replacement tiles which have been broken,note the letter E with the tile following the shape of the lower serif.
This was the last remnants of the Beeches pub Northfield,one of my favourite pubs in the late 60's, gaffer was Charlie Mason.Don't know who took the photo,so cannot give credit.
