Sorry Lyn, I'm 99% sure that the houses shown in the second photo are 19,20 & 21. The Brittania is listed in Nechells Green unfortunately, but the position of Richmond Place on that side of the road , together with numbering up one side and down the other, ending at the Stork makes it pretty certain. there is a slight possibilty that the three might be 20, 21 & 22, but I don't think it likely

Sorry Lyn while checking my photos, I found that the Britannia was the other end of Freeman Rd as well as the one in Bullock St, I must have walked around with my eyes closed in my teens, I'm still looking for a photo of Freeman Rd.

Lyn. Dek & & Max,

I have just altered my previous post to save any confusion, its just me getting my pubs mixed up, like I did when I used them. Lyn here is a photo of the only part of Freeman Rd I have, a part that shows the Stork of course.
