Hi Ray, I was catching up on recent posts on the Clifton Road thread a couple of days ago and read your reply out to my 95 year old Mother on Thursday - who was in hospital at the time really poorly -I has previously recalled her talking about Arthur Burley many years ago. I thought she would enjoy casting her mind back and recalling memories. She said the Burley family previously lived in
?Thomas Street/Upper Thomas Street behind where my aunt and her family (the Phipps family) lived. She recalled the police being involved due to illicit betting and Mrs Burley, which I understand to have been against the law at that time.
Sadly my mother passed away this morning, so unfortunately I will never be able to ask her anything further.
