I mentioned Park Rd in Post 103. We just don't know.
If anyone has 'Accrington Acclaimed' which I compiled with Geoff Taylor in 2008, look at page 28. These two pics were taken at the same location as the one we have been discussing, but facing the other way. The block is between Henry & Ernest Streets. Using the 1951 directory, I have surmised that the shop front in 'our' photo is No 21, occupied by Mr Holden, a fruiterer.
Why were these two streets, and Edward St, given Christian names?
Why did it take me so long to work out that I had access to these two photos?
