Nechelles in 1851: Osborne Buildings

Ontarian

Brummie babby
Dear Brummies: My ancestor, John Homer, a glass blower, lived with his family in Nechelles in 1851 in Osbornes Buildings. The occupants of Osborne's Buildings go on for pages and pages in the census. No address is given for them, other than Aston Parish, Ste Matthews Ecclesiastical District.
Can anybody tell me anything about the Osborne Buildings? Were they back-to-backs? Where were they?
Thanks, Cliff the Ontarian
 
Osborne buildings had at one end Cheatham St , and at the other Fisherman's Row, followed by fisherman's huts, and then Mount St. so it would be between Mount St and Cheatham St, off Nechells Park road
