My Grandfather was a Caretaker to Jesse Boots Factory on Parkinson Street c 1910. Anyone have any photos of Parkinson Street about the time ?

 

Thanks

Found an earlier post of yours re this.

 

 

I've just found this which refers to deeds of no. 24, so presumably house came with job;

From here, 1922;

The large building on the corner in the foreground was Boots head office at the time.

Parkinson street arrowed, running parallel with and between Station st. and the Canal, haven't worked out the numbering as to whether  no. 24 is visible;
