THE END OF LAVENDER STREET

In this photograph can be seen five Council houses, lying back between Hereford Street and Essex Street on 12 February 1967. Lavender Street had been widened here in 1928 and ancient cottages removed. These Council houses had a very brief life however. 40 and 41 (behind the lorry) were built in 1929 and 42, 43 and 44, by Essex Street, in 1933. All were swept away in 1967 during the stopping-up of Lavender Street.
