I think date on the title to the photo (1902)is a bit out . Kellys for the pub lists:

1884-1899 Miss Mary Ann Crisp
1900-1905 William Crisp
1908 -1921 Thomas Jones

So date is most likely 1905-1907 as licensee is certainly not any of those

That was close to the corner with Adderley road south and not sharp on the corner.
Also the road names are the wrong way round for it to be the Britannia. See below on map c 1951

Again, not a lot of detail as the original is newsprint. I've altered the contrast and brightness and taken out some of the 'creases' on the fold. Shame it wasn't a scanned original.villiage maid pub a.jpg
