Crookes Road, Broomhill

This road is a former tram route to Crookes, but since the night of 8th October 1960, buses have taken over. There never was a tram or bus stop here though. Nor would there have been room to construct a lay-by as properties were not set back from the road, as they are now. The building at the junction of Spooner Road was a Grocers and Off Licence, back in the 50s and 60s.
