I can mark on the 1890 map which is Brighton terrace, and, assuming it is numbered with no 1 nearest Winson green road, then can mark no 3. is that satisfactory

The 1890 map is a bit unclear in detail. Have put it on below, but the position is much clearer on the 1903 map , so have included that also. As i said, both assume numbering goes from no 1 nearest winson green road. Dudley road goes accross the bottom

My Gt Grandfather lived at 30 Winson Green Rd, which was just past the school on the same side. It could have been the first house. I also had an aunt who in 1911 lived at 226 Winson Green Rd, a shop which was owned by her aunt Eliza Trickett.

In 1900 it was called Dudley Road Board School. In 1967 it was Summerfield junior & infants school
