Hi, does anyone have a picture/pictures of the Oak pub in Selly Oak it was situated i think on the corner of bristol road by the traffic lights it would probly have been where pitza hut is situated now and just across would of been the Oak cinema,where sainsburys is now
The original Oak pub stood opposite Oak Tree Lane, on the corner of Bristol Rd and Harborne Lane.
In this modern view, the 'Selly Oak' stood about where the tree on the right is, the houses are now shops and of course the Bristol Rd was much narrower then.
The next 'Oak' pub was on the corner of Chapel Lane, about where the 'No Entry' sign is in this view. That's the one you're after.
