The Old Grindstone, Crookes
...but not the original. The Old Original Grindstone was across the road, about where the tree stands. I have no history of The Old Grindstone, or the Original, but if anything becomes known, I will update this. The road left leads to Crosspool and the A57. The road right carries on up to Crookes, Walkley and Hillsborough.

I photographed this pub back in 1968 and did a pen and ink drawing of it in 1976, which you can see here, much reduced in size from 7100x5000 - http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a303/escafeld01/Misc/OLDGRINDSTONE-LINEDRAWINGb.jpg

Crookes, Crookes
A rather confusing title, but this road ahead is simply called Crookes, which also happens to be the name of the district it passes through.
To the left, is The Old Grindstone. To the right, hardly seen behind the trees, is new build. When I lived in Crookes, there in the ‘60s, was a mixed range of old cottages, from 2–20 Crookes.
At 22/24 was The Old Original Grindstone – 26/30 Raffo’s Gift Shop & Hardware Dealers – 34/36 Cecil P Oldham, Electrical Engineer and Bicycle Dealer. "Ernie", as we knew him, also ran a cycling club based in Totley, of which I was a member.
From 40–60, more houses in the row, which included Sam Hoole & Sons, Coal Dealers, who delivered our coal at Crookes 239a. At number 62 was Mrs A Redford, Fruitier and Greengrocer. All were gone by the ‘70s.
Originally, this was a tram route - Crookes to Handsworth.
