This view is referred to as the "Cannon Hill Triangle". Don't know if that is/was its common name, but this is the junction of Edward Road with Court Road and Cannon Hill Road. Took me a while to to track this one down.

And a couple more images labelled Cannon Hill Road itself. I'm not yet wholly convinced the colourised postcard is actually Birmingham.

Probably called that as the Cannon hill pub (now some sort of community centre), was there on the corner of court road.

I seem remember the Police Station , was in Cannon Hill Road, I lost my puppy once, as a child and went there, got some cake and milk, some time in early 50's.
Seems hard to believe trams once ran along this road.

Reference Vivienne's commencing post, I believe that the 'triangle' referred to the three-way track tracks found at that point. The tram tracks were single track, as were a good many of those in Balsall Heath.
