Moor St to the side of the station did come to mind, as the little tower on the back of on e of them reminded me of the towers in the old moor st station yard. but did not think rest fitted.

I remember going to the Perry Barr dog track (I think it was) about 1948 with my uncle to see an American Wild West show which I thought was connected to Wild Bill Hickock in some way. My only memory of the show is a team of 'cowboys', each of them standing on horseback .... some single and some doubles between three horses with lassoos.
