The shelters were built around 1931, as far as I know replacements for older ones. After the bombing of The Great Western Arcade, opposite Snow Hill, much of the glass - if not all - was replaced with boards. The last tram from Snow Hill was 31/3/39Taken prior to spring 1939. The clue is the sign above the shelter which states 'CARS load here for ....' .
Birmingham City Transport (who were rather particular about that sort of thing) would have changed the signage to read 'Buses load here for ....' within minutes of the last tram commencing its final sad journey.
