The original South Bank was still there is 1951 I think.

Photo of Colonel Joseph Clive Piggott MC (centre of photo in army uniform): https://shop.memorylane.co.uk/mirro...orway-inspects-guard-honour-8th-21908674.html. Was in Birmingham Home Guard during WWII and was formerly of Coldstream Guards. Apparently he died in 1975 in Park Hill, Moseley. Not sure if he actually lived in South Bank or was just there to open the exhibition.
