BACK LANE
AS IT WAS

and
AS IT IS NOW



photograph of Back Lane as it was
Back Lane which ran from St. Paul's Road to the Half Acre, 1905. It was also part of Troy Town, which consisted of narrow alleyways and small crowded house. Considered to be a slum, the last cottages were demolished in 1958.

I remember going past the small houses above, on my way to the Queens Hall cinema on saturday mornings to watch the children's picture shows - happy days. The photo now shows the back of the supermarket.
