soft ayperth Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 And does anyone remember the name of the other doctor who lived on the other side of Norfolk Rd,on the corner of Talbot St We as kids used to call him the black doctor We did'nt know any better in those days That would have been Dr. Pereira. My grandparents who lived on Talbot Place used to go to him. I think he may have been of Cuban origin (?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked through the electoral roll for 1934 and almost every house on the street was occupied by some sort of relative His name was Jim Ford, I don't know if you knew him? We have some photos at hubby's mums of the pub at the bottom of the road, the Granville Inn, but not of the road itself. Hi I know this thread is from 2007 but I found it googling the Granville in for my dad. I wonder if you still have those photos of the pub? Fingers crossed!

That was 1934 Smashing area to live All nice friendly people South st, Granville lane I walked down Bungay a while ago now just for old times sake Wish I had'nt a bit too sad Only just joined this site but am very interested to read the tales about Bungay Street. I lived with my parents at number 12 Norfolk Road when my father was ‘demobbed’ at the end of the war. I was about five. I attended Park school for a while before my parents moved me on to Manor Lane. I remember Bungay Street very well as my auntie Ginnie used to run the fish and chip shop on Granville Street. Anybody remember her? A very formidable lady but also very kind. I also remember sledging down Bungay Street probably in 1947 and running home with my hands so cold the when they started to warm up I got ‘hot aches’. I bet people remember them, very painful. I’ve not lived in Sheffield for many years but on a visit a few years ago I was waiting for a tram at the Midland station when I suddenly realised that where I was standing was right across from where auntie Ginnie’s shop had been. There was another shop a bit further along, a grocer’s and I think that was run by a Mrs Bannister. There was also Gunstans bakery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
