Old road picture

[Tony1]

We have moved into a lovely old Victorian house on Housley park in chapeltown,the previous owner of the house had a lovely old picture of the road showing the house when it was first built plus a couple of the neighbours houses.

 

Sadly the owner took the picture with her when she moved out, so I wondered if anyone knew of any places that do pictures of roads back in the day?

Hi Tony1,

 

Did you know that Picture Sheffield is a good source of old road pics but unfortunately there are none of Housley Park or Lane. Have a look at these and I suggest you type in the search box the road names of any similar types of property near to yours.....

I bought some good quality prints some years ago from the Library on Surrey Street. Looks like it may be contracted out nowadays. Click on here If you find anything you require...
