William Street City Centre

That back yard doesn't ring any bells for me at the moment , Ist question I'd ask why is the entry blocked off all things being equal you should be able to see William Street . I wonder if Mike could give a map bearing as to what part of the street it's on Lyn

It looks like a wooden gate street side of the entry which some yards had, also it looks like it's next to a factory with those steps going down from the second floor.
 
Looking at a much earlier map it looks as though this was the part in Court 9 being demolished (not showing on 1950s map).

A cracking image Lyn and must have some age to it as the chap on the right is blurred possibly due to the long exposure required.

i agree john...also looking at the way the men are dressed i would hazard a guess that the date could even be 1920s/30s
