ACProctor 2 Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Taken late-summer (nearly September, Steve was born there in the December) in 1958 after a flash food. It lasted a few hours and resulted in 4/5" rain, and sludge that remained for the rest of the day. The photo was taken from a room over the dry-cleaners on the corner of Livingstone St. Opposite (behind the bus) is Cathcart St, with the Garden Gate pub (closed in 1973) of the left of it. The wall opposite is where St Ann's Sunday School used to be -- St Ann's Church was a little more to the left. There was a fruit and veg shop on the opposite corner of Livingstone St, and it's probably the owner cleaning the mud off the pavement.From the 1956 Kelly's Directory, the dry-cleaners was Clark's of Retford, dyers & cleaners, and was at no. 184 St Ann's Well Rd. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 I knew a Brian Pegg, wonder if he was any relation to her. But he lived at Clifton, but could well have been relocated to Clifton when St Anns was redeveloped. Brian worked at Clifton Colliery the same time as myself in the 1960's.

I was married to him for 10 years If I remember rightly he lived in shop around the corner at the bottom of our street which would have been his parents and they had decorating goods in the window and you seem to know most people around the same age group.
