Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Crookes, Crookes To the right, is new build. When I lived in Crookes, there in the 60s, was a mixed range of old cottages, from 220 Crookes. At 22/24 was The Old Original Grindstone 26/30 Raffos Gift Shop & Hardware Dealers 34/36 Cecil P Oldham, Electrical Engineer and Bicycle Dealer. "Ernie", as we knew him, also ran a cycling club based in Totley. From 4060, more houses in the row, which included Sam Hoole & Sons, Coal Dealers. At number 62 was Mrs A Redford, Fruitier and Greengrocer. All were gone by the 70s. Then comes Coombe Road, across which is Mr Bs Off Licence. Back in the 60s it was a Butchers Shop. Beyond the house is DJs News, which as the name suggests, is a Newsagents, as it was back then. Next door is Da Vinci Hair, Hairdressers, which used to be Darnells Drapers Shop. There are a couple more houses and between them and The Works Beauty Studio, is Wesley Lane.
On this side of the road, just beyond Bute Street, was Ideal Upholstery Services - Charles Scruton, Hairdresser - Dow Electrics, Electrical Appliance Dealers and H Vicars, Fishmonger. All gone by the '70s. Originally, this was a tram route - Crookes to Handsworth. |
