new john st west slum clearance

P

Peter Brackley

proper brummie kid
I just spotted the slum clearance maps that relate to the 30s and wondered if anyone had any idea if there were any which showed a similar thing for New John St West?
In particular I am looking for anything which would show the area of the street which lay between Summer Lane and Newtown Row. We lived at 4/23 until we were slum cleared in about 1959 and I would love to get hold of any archive material which would show the yards.
 
Hi Peter
If you type new john street west in google and click images there are some there and around newtown row. My mother lived in an old back house in that street aswell. eric
