Re: lost dialect
Refering to terraced houses , what were the jobstones/joabstones ? are they the two uprights on either side of the front door and the stone lintles on the bottom window , usually painted a matching color to the front door and window frames.
Also there was usually a fixed small window above the front door a 'fanlight' which allowed light into the lobby but it was called something different by my Grandparents (think the window cleaner charged 3d extra for that one)
