I’ve seen a few press reports of snooker matches held there. So the premises must have been a good size. Eg
31/1/1931 the Midland Amateur Snooker Championship
21/1/1933 the Midland Amateur Snooker Championship

Tram 633 on route 79 [13] heading towards Lancaster Place, the home of the Central Fire Station. The General Hospital tower is in view. This is now the Children's Hospital named after Princess Diana.
