Would you believe this was the same view in 2011, although it went back to the 2009 view later. Large tree removed.

The excellent link shown by oldMohawk has the photo in very high resolution. The sign further on the left does say Kings Heath is 2 1/2 miles to the left, but I agree I do not recognise the front of the Horseshoe as it is seen here.

This is a shot from 2009, just past a bus stop on left (yellow dotted lines), note large tree branches on left as in photo middle left: same slip road from Hall Green Library & Telephone Exchange

Yes looks like Stratford rd junction with School Road/Colebank rd, Hall Green College on left, The Horseshoe Pub on right, No.11 Outer Circle bus crossing
