Thanks Helen - that's one of my favourite BFA slides (despite the damage). BTW apologies if I've asked about this one before but does anyone know what this building was originally? Its on that BFA slide as well and lasted in to the later 70's.......

We wrote about it earlier butting up to the wall of the Little Palace Yard but we didn't identify it, I don't think. It was at the end of the yard on Earl Street that housed the Technical Institute, so maybe it was part of the Poly? |

More Nicola Smith goodness from the M.Toms collection - LPS looking south - the junction with St John Street by the building with the 'Lilliput' Ad -

Nice one Neil. It helps a lot to be able to link the past with the present. I could walk the old city blindfolded but I still struggle with relating the old and new. |

You might be right. The car seems to have a shadow on the left which would mean the sun was in the west. |

Dutchman posted this view way back in post #11 but this seems to be a fuller/wider view - it's looking south -

People might have seen this version of the King's Head at the end of Little Park Street.

It was being sold in 1828 and described as an old established public house so it would be dated some time before that. Question |
