Thank you to Neil Lawrence for sending me the map above, showing where

World War I.

Thank you to Gordon Aitchison who wrote: |
Shop at No.79
"My maternal
Grandmother had a shop at No.79 Albert
street. My cousin believes
that Nos. 77 to 81 were knocked
down, maybe in
the early-1970s.
Do
you know of anyone who may have any information
about these buildings? I'd love it if
someone had a photoof
them."
