Warwickshire / Birmingham - can you identify this building?
« on: Wednesday 01 April 20 20:34 BST (UK)  »
I understand this photo to be taken in 1941 in Birmingham.

The family were from Luton so I have no idea why they were there.

The building opposite is quite distinctive - can anybody identify it?
