I have been trying to locate them on old maps or where they may have been, the bit of information I have is that it ran from Much Park Street (or I'm way out). Thanks xxx Question |

Zoom out to see map. It's not a given that the numbering was the same for your two dates as early numbering wasn't the odds and evens style we now use. However there was such a great number of new houses built in the 25 years prior to 1937 that the small quantity of older buildings might have been renumbered in the modern style. Select older maps to work out where 11 was. My guess is that it was the ruin next to the Salvation Army building. |

It reminds me that the houses to the right, but behind the camera, are well below the level of the present London Road. In the late sixties someone restored / rebuilt a mini in the small area in front of a house, but about 5/6 ft below London Road. How it came out was captured in the CET with a crane! Question |

Here however is one of London Road:
