Grimesthorpe Part 3

[Bowls]

Does anyone know anything about the old lady that lived at no 18Cycposst in 50s and all so number 48Cyclops st at the same time before the Sharps moved in 

The Richards both used to go out in fur coats even in the summer they did hum a bit

Mid 60's

 

The mother was getting off (between the two corner shops on Ludlow St, top of Moss St) where the clock was as I was getting on to go towards town. She was in a state of undress with eyes that could no see.         Not a pretty sight before bedtime

Where was Ludlow Street ? Wasn't Hunsley Street at the top of Moss Street?

Apparently Ludlow St was Hunsley St but they extended petre St and Ludlow St was no Longer needed so I read in an earlier post by skippy who was one of the £10 poms that emigrated.. Not heard anything from. Him/her in ages 🤔

Ludlow  St ran from top of Moss street from Hunsley St all the way to Botham St here the clock was on a corner street light post. This was there because this was the terminus for the #34 bus that had to turn down Hunsley St a bit, then reverse up past Moss street to return to town.

Foreground was Ludlow St

Is it where the Target corner shop was? Memory not so good these days 🤔

Sorry ,I don't know that name, but the there was a shop on the corner where the gas lamp is (Botham St) and another on the corner of" Ludlow St" and Hunsley St. Between these was a covered bus stop  The shop down Hunsley St at Ruthin St was Sutcliffe's in the 60's.

I used to go to school with a girl who's family ran the shop behind where the people are stood-late 1950s early 60s- her name was Pat Hemingway.

Doing some Ancestry, has anyone heard of Moses St and Clay St,, they may be in the Attercliffe or Bright side areas the way the family is playing out. Just like to see  .

Clay St ran off Attercliffe Rd & was h next Rd after Newhall Rd going away from town. I can't find any reference to  Moses Rd - could it be a transcription error?
