A comment made by a previous contributor for this square was of an old black church that once stood on the site. This photograph was taken during 1977 while the church of All Saints, Brightside (also referred to as All Saints, Pitsmoor) was being demolished. A brave bell-hanger had ascended the half-demolished church to rescue the ring of eight bells; the bells now ring out from St Anne's church, Worksop.The day and month are a guess but the year is accurate.
