Re: The Hippodrome
Alan has got that right ask a resident
the last house was a toffee shop when I lived down there it must have been a goldmine when the Hippy was open then as Alan said the back st which ran to albion st then when you went past the hippodrome down ellison st there was a backstreet (if that's what you would call it) it was a cinder/ash path the same surface as the tenement with an iron post in its centre at the Ellison st end the other end open onto the tenement, in the photograph in dispute the top of more of the bus depot is what is seen, if I am looking at the right one
hope that bit of info hasn't bored you
keep up the good work
