Ludlow Street ran from Moss Street /Hunsley Street to Botham Street. Years ago Petre Street only went as far as Carwood Road (coming from town) or perhaps Garter Street. the rest was undeveloped until the Grimesthorpe end, that's where Ludlow Street came in. I once saw a map somewhere on S.F.

I have a Godfrey Edition ordnance survey map map Sheffield (North) 1905. It is extremely detailed covering Pitsmoor and Grimesthorpe all along Carlisle St East. Unfortunately I am unable to add a photo from it to this comment but I can assure you that Ludlow Street was the last piece of the extended Petre St. This a picture of it.

That's Botham St where clock was 

Where was the clock, was it a free standing  thing (on a pole) near the to town bus stop  that was between Hunsley Street and Botham Street ?

That's right, from the camera at top of Moss Street to Botham St where the clock was on the left Is LUDLOW STREET

That's that then Ludlow St did exist just can't recall it 🤔

I've been in Canada for 40 years and I can remember it . I used that bus stop for years as I married a girl just down Hunsley St.

Got to admit the map helps a lot.

I only knew my wife's family and couple of  her friends. She doesn't know them either, this was all back in the '60's.
