Judith,

Welcome to the Forum. I'm sure that you mean Cox Street West, Balsall Heath, but please use the Search facility (top right of every page and enter the name of the street or road in quotes. That will throw up some photographs to start you off, though whether they will include the exact house numbers I can't say. Our member Mikejee took many photographs of Cox Street West just before the houses were demolished and these are here:-

In the meantime, no doubt other members may come up with information and pictures.

I think you will find no 30 Cox Road West in the centre of the photo below, though in a deserted and dilapidated state just before demolition
