St David's, Birmingham.

Hello everyone. I am looking at a baptism record on ancestry. It shows a baby named Arthur Cardall who was baptised in Birmingham, St David in April 1915. The family were living at No.103 Cox Street West and his father was employed as a chimney sweep.

I am unsure if the record is saying that he was baptised in St David's Church or if it was simply in the area of St David's parish in Birmingham. All I know that the baptism states the family were of the Church of England denomination.

Any help or theories would be much appreicated.
Thankyou x
