DAVIDW 1,606 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 The times I went by this place on the corner of Carlton Hill and Porchester Road , initially when a lad on the 25 bus to and from Mapperley and then when I lived in Thorneywood and drove to West Bridgford each day . Was speaking to my brother recently , who was a school pal at Henry Mellish of organist Dave Rowberry , (who later replaced Alan Price in The Animals group) and he told me Dave Rowberry's dad worked in that old corrugated roofed , former chapel that was Henry Groves Organ Works . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 9,832 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I think I can place that photo, but I'm not certain. Is this the modern equivalent ? https://goo.gl/maps/y8Y22Km3PSnVWPrh8 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cliff Ton 9,832 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 What was confusing me is that the road name on the wall on the right appears to be three words. Is it just a trick of a lo-res photo ? Or is it one of those places where road names have changed ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,606 Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 Perhaps slight name change ? I wondered if it said something like Carlton Road West ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
