Looking for a Pub

Hi All, I have read out from the 1911 Census concerning an Albert Moore and his wife Margaret and son Alexander Daughter Margaret. According to the 1911 Census they the managers of the Vaughton Arms Hotel 137 Leopold street Birmingham. Can somebody please tell me if that pub still exists.

Regards

Hi George

I don't think we've spoken before, extends hand of friendship, hi I'm Shimmer.

Have googled for you, keeps asking if I mean Haughton Arms Hotel ...

Will keep trying, we have many friends on Chat (probably Gen too) from that area or nearby, I'll ask around for you.

Take care my friend, tis so nice to meet you. Hoping you are not in the areas affected by high winds and more ... have friends in Oz too.

Hi George,

That address on google maps (with an aerial view) seems to be an area of modern houses and industrial units.
