OLD AND NEW PHOTOGRAPHS

[MWS]

This picture is described as looking down Sladefield Road , I have two versions, one a lot darker but fuller image with legs on the children or this lighter image - neither are amazing but I think this offers the better view down the road, lads have white collars and the girls have full dresses, A full set of blinds protecting the goods in the shops

This is possibly Highfield Road rather than Sladefield Road.

This photograph came up in my FB feed, it's Jasper Carrot and Bev Bevan holding a photograph of Birmingham showing the building which was originally in the space behind them.
It looks familiar but I can't just place where in the city centre it is, maybe just off Smallbrook Ringway - does anyone know?!

Just thinking now.....could it be Hurst Street?

Just thinking now.....could it be Hurst Street?

Surely it's the Beehive where they both worked?

Ah yes....I should have guessed that!
Thanks
