Waggon and Horses Pub Bartholomew Street

proper brummie kid
Hello I am researching my paternal relation George LOWE b1819 Birmingham. The census (Midlands Electoral Register and 1871 Census) states he ran the Waggon and Horses at 61 Bartholomew Street from 1864 until 1875. He then moved onto the Gas House Tavern Upper Windsor Street (I'll list this one separately)
Does anyone know any further information about this pub or have a map?
Regards Joanne
 
Below is a map from 1889. By this time Bartholomew St has been cut in half by the railway into New St and is 2 separate roads. The Waggon and Horses is not marked and I wonder if it was one of the buildings demolished...

Oh thank you for the map. I did a search on this site and found a previous post from 2009 under the titled Pubs in Bartholomew Street (Little Italy) and on there it states the Waggon and Horses was definitely number 61 and closed in 1943, given that date, hopefully a photo might exist.....somewhere!!
