Saltley Methodist Church

Thanks, Janice. There's now a red brick church built in the 1900s at the address - the address given for the church today is #140 AR Road. But I can't quite fit the hall with the location. The B&W photo seems to have an adjacent road of terraced housing to the right. Of course, there might have been major changes over time, so it could have changed, but I'd expect a road leading off to the left or right of the church (at least its name) would still exist. There are just passageways either side. Alternatively, and most likely, perhaps the Hall wasn't on exactly the same site.

I would not have thought the two Churches were in the same location due to the slope of the road in he second one. It would have to be a real major change fo it to be so different.
I find the construction of the white gates on the first one interesting in regards to the hinges
The interior of the second one looks lovely. Would love to know what it was changed into
 
I have just enlarged the photo and the board says "Wesleyan Methodist"
I just wondered if it was taken from a different angle so we can see the houses to the back
