The B4147 is a short B-road in eastern Birmingham.
It starts on the A4040 (formerly B4146) Stechford Lane, just to the north of the Stechford Bridge, and heads east along Stechford Road before ending on a road with a different name, Coleshill Road, which is the B4114 (formerly A47).
Some maps and road signs suggest that the B4147 now multiplexes east along the B4114 to the next roundabout (known as the Clock Garage Island, although the garage itself was demolished in 2012) before regaining its number and heading north along Newport Road to meet the M6 at junction 5. Other maps and road signs suggest that this section is a spur of either the A452 or the B4114 and the road was certainly part of the A452 when the A47 still went this way.
