In between Well Street and Henry Street was the back street for Henry Street which was very wide and came right down to Whally Rd could the tripe shop have been on this corner,looking at the door numbers it looks like the bottom of Henry St would have been approx 148 and 150 which then could make 158 at the bottom of the back street.

I think you are right. Grandma's tripe shop was definitely on a corner, but it was a narrow street or ally. If you look at the photo I posted, the end has been cut off, and there are no visible markings on the shop. Thanks!
