Bernie is trying to find out where the Kings Norton Estate Office used to be – it was used for collecting rents from Grant properties in the area. Can anyone help?

My Dad told of the time he had to visit Mrs Ferris at Grant House (which became the police station), to be “approved” to rent a builders yard when he first started his business. She did not approve as she thought his business would fail. Nevertheless, he had a successful business for over 40 years!
If Dad was still alive could answer your query, it may have been in the house.
Standing on road looking at Grant House would be the railway cutting then a yard before the shops houses etc. That’s where Grant’s Yard was.
