Yes, certainly it's of family-history interest to me. Many thanks.

Excellent - thank you!

Thank you! Now that IS new to me: I'm most grateful. But that suggests that no.327 was Moscow House, a rather less romantic name than Rosedale...

Thank you - Yes, I have that info, thanks, but I was hoping someone would link that address with the house name Rosedale, or just recognise the house as still existing.

Yes, but I find that suspicious: isn't it more likely that one of them is a mistranscription of the same digits - 273, 237...?

Yes, a common name, but if it was indeed on the Moseley Road, there's a chance it's still standing and that someone on here might have thought they knew it. I don't assume it still has that gate of course, or the name. And I agree that it would be better if we could see the writing on the wall...

That's very odd, if true. I can see no reason for it, however. After all, the relative who has digitised it from a family photo album that is at least 100 years old, is as curious as I am to learn the identity of the building (and by extension its people).

My best hunch is George Lingard. He's in Moseley Road Kings Norton on the 1871 and 1881 Census.

Yes: I believe the people are ancestors on my maternal side.

Can anyone identify this Birmingham house, please? It was almost certainly in Aston / Ladywood, and maybe on Moseley Road?
