    Essex Street

    I was attempting to identify the location of the bombed-out houses but could find no reference on the BARRA website. There is a top quality aerial image on the Britain from above website which makes it possible to identify the location.

    Geach Arms, Summer Lane

    Map showing numbers for Geach Arms and Three Horse Shoes i.e. 217 & 232. Difficult to pinpoint No. 218 exactly as there appears to be insufficient buildings between these two numbers but 218 is either part of the building shown as No. 217 or immediately next door

    Whittall Street

    Looking at Kelly's for 1955 & 1964 (I don't have access to the years in between), it appears that Whittall Street was virtually obliterated. Although Parker-Hale Ltd. is visible on both photographs I'm not convinced the premises were still occupied in 1963.

    The image in post #1 has been labelled incorrectly, in 1921 William Ford was at No. 15 but in 1964 at No. 7a. I will edit post #1
