This view seems to be looking down Cole Bank Road across to Sarehole Mill. It was taken from the junction with Southam Road. An earlier Streetview shows the original wall on the right, which in the B&W photo, was topped with a privit hedge, recently it's had a fence erected on top. Also the tall pillars to the tall gate on the right are still there.

At the bottom of Cole Bank Road, on the left, was a number 11 bus stop where I waited many times between 1956 and 1961 to go to the new Camp Hill Grammar School at King's Heath. Tony Hancock lived for a very short time in Southam Road before the family moved to Bournemouth.
