Not right but getting very close, lets say you are on the right road.

If you are going to dance all around it, I am going to have to give you another clue.

What was the the road that led up to Old Square called? Once you have that, you have to raise your thoughts.

You actually mention this restaurant in a post you made in May of last year.

Ignoring Lichfield St Corporation St what was the name of the road leading uphill to Old Square before the Ringway. Get that and you are halfway there. Well the lower half at least.

I think its been pretty well decided that it was in the area around what used to be Old Square.

I can only urge you to think of what once stood in the locality of Old Square, Then think of the other clues that I have given.

Phil
 
Its not Dalton St, but the back of Corporation St is getting close. Look at an old map if you have one.
