The Tamworth Arms is marked on this map in red. "Central Birmingham Pubs by JosephMcKenna reckons it was "more or less" on the site of "the Outrigger". but that must be only a vague approximation, as it seems to have been further away from Moor st station than the outrigger.

If I remember the Outrigger correctly. it was itself quite a way back from the road, wasn't it back about half as deep as the car park.

I used to go in the outrigger a lot. Knew one of the barmaids. It wasn't set back very much , more set up !! as you can see from the picture

No Mike, its not the one that I knew. My brother in law worked there for a short while in the sixties, but I think his sister worked there for quite a while longer. I thought it might have been her.

For completeness, in case anyone comes to this thresd, the tamworth arms seems to have disappeared between 1950 and 1956, presumably during the redevelopment
