Linsey Street, 48 years on
Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 1 Jun 2011
This is a recreation of the view in the 1963 photo at http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2026569 Image Only the low wall and metal fence around the grassed area in the foreground gives a fix: everything else has changed. The railway arches in the distance in the earlier photo are now hidden behind later buildings, and the terraced housing on Linsey Street itself has been demolished. Linsey Street is now a dead-end although a stub of it remains beyond the railway viaduct.
