A STROLL AROUND NORTH LAINE AREA – TRAFALGAR STREET AND YORK PLACE

Dates of these photographs are not known, but it is thought that all were taken in the period 1958/61, a view that is supported by the almost complete absence of motor vehicles in the residential streets.
The corner shop, Eltenton’s Stores was a very old-established business. Founded in 1868 by E. Hoadley, Grocer and Post Office. The rest of York Place was then all private houses until the Northern Hotel. In the 1880s H. Eltenton took over and the family business survived for many years. However it closed down not long after the photograph was taken.
