on the 1955 electoral rolls for Birmingham - Bert Taylor, Lillian R. Taylor and William H. Blake are living 316 Bloomsbury Street.
 
Re: Help find the blake family

in 1950 at the same address were Sydney C. Blake, Mary H. Blake, Ernest S. Smith and Mary K. Smith - so i presume Mary K Smith was nee Blake.
