Hi Sandy,
Welcome to you.
You must have lived down the back of the café just where the maisonettes started opposite the greengrocers. I lived down the road from you on the other side of the road just past where the maisonettes finished in one of the two houses that were set back off the road and had steps up to the front garden.
It was my grandparents house but I think we had moved to Nechells by the time you were born, though I did live there on and off occasionally my grandparents lived there until they demolished the street in about 1974.
Any photos I have of Vincent Street are already on the forum, if you type Balsall Heath in the search box at the top right of the page it will bring up all the posts concerning Balsall Heath which will include many places that you will remember.
