Thank you very much for the map. Do you know if there was ever a picture or photo of this chapel on Coventry Road? Stubbs:)
 
This it ? Or I think there was another one opposite on the corner of Jenkins St.

Demolished about 1963 or 64. I got thrown out of the Cubs there after about an hour, must be a record eh ! Heres another pic, Theres a a supermarket there now .


The Church on the corner of Jenkins St is still there I think, but I'm pretty sure that was a Babtist Church.
 
Brilliant! I think that's the one. We have a photo presumably taken from the other side in a kind or garden with part of the church showing. Do you know if there was a garden at the back?
 
There was a pub next to it called the Brighton, not sure if it had Gardens, but big pub so probably did.

Still There, tried a look on google earth street view ?
