Rear brake binding

Hi,

My first post, sorry if this has been covered before, hopefully it may be useful to someone.

Had a problem with the rear brake binding, found that the handbrake was stuck on, the pivet arm which holds the end the the handbrake cable was seized. Stripped out the shoes and freed the pivot with penetrating oil, rebuilt and check handbrake function, all fixed. I have pointed out the pivot with a yellow arrow on the attached image.
