Australia Flats Shard End

Does anyone have a map showing the position of these flats in Kitsland Road? I can only find a 1948 map, which shows fields, and my 1960s A-Z which isn't in that much detail. Of course they have now been demolished.

My Mother and Grandmother moved there from Mount Street in Nechells in the 1950s, and then after my Mother was married, they moved to a 2 bed flat still in the "Australias".
 
there is some info on the flats in the below link

Shard End Australian Flats

The terminus is now at chelmsley wood shopping centre, What was the lonnie donegan show called so we can all see it if its on you tube I can't find any reference to it anywhere, even on youtube. I presume it was called the Lonnie Donegan Show, though I really cannot remember. Terry

Thank you. The pictures on this thread are great. I want to locate those exact areas now so a map would be great if anyone has one?
