mardybum 1 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Just joined , and reading all these comments with great interest as I've just found out Crosland St was around the Red Lion St area, when my GG Grandad John Lowe got married in 1875 on the cert he was living on Crosland St his dad was Charles Lowe, as was my GG Grandma Elizabeth Marson can't find John on the 71/81 census only Elizabeth at her Dads in Stanton on the Wolds with my great granddad and his sister 81 census. There was a Lowes yard on 1 map I looked at, just behind Red Lion Street don't no if there's a connection ,come to a stand still with the Lowes ,so looking at the pictures & reading the messages has gave me a great incite to the area Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember a Bill Russell who lived on Ellerby Avenue and he was Jamaican (I think) and he had two children and a fine singing voice. He'd be about the age of my parents who lived nearby. Hi, sorry for the delay in replying (only 4 years late...!) My grandad, Bill, lived on Ellerby Avenue and yes i am told he used to like to sing in the pubs of Clifton! Winning Post was his favourite i think. Dianne is my mum and Pete my uncle. What's your family name if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
radfordred 6,284 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 The Loggerheads pub sadly missed anyone got any photos when it was the Woodman? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,464 Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 It was never called The Woodman. That was a different place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I read that Kirk's Yard was hidden behind a heavy wooden door. Is there a map showing these yards Cliff Ton ? Reading old newspaper articles, its last use was as storage place for an Italian man call Theo Garribaldi who stored his street barrel organs there. Apparently they were rented out to various street vendors who roamed the city streets. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jill Sparrow 10,305 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 And what modern day eyesore stands on the site of that building now, I wonder? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beekay 5,143 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 Probably another bloody coffee bar or burger/pizza joint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,464 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 This is Byron Yard (running down the side of Lord Byron pub) and Kirk’s Yard. The road across the top is Narrow Marsh, aka Red Lion Street, and now known as Cliff Road. For a present day reference, at top-centre is Loggerhead Inn. That building is still there today, but no longer a pub. And this is the scene today, with Loggerhead on the right. https://maps.app.goo.gl/tLD1CwPcesAj6Ncu9 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,683 Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 Thanks very much Cliff Ton , that helps understand the layout. If fact your arrow I think touches what was Marsh Farm in Kirk's Yard (L shape building) as it backed on to a house and provisions shop owned by a Mr. Dale in Narrowmarsh (according to a sale advert from 1893).
