Pellew St
Hi,
I’m trying to find out what happened to Pellew St. And where it was.
My Grandfather lived there 1911 census.
I cant find it on any maps-was it destroyed in ww2?
Pellew Street was situated off Ainsworth Street (no Relation) near to Coppers Hill. It was demolished in the 1960`s to make way for the Royal Mail Depot. The attached map of the area dates from 1843 and the other showing Lime Street Station is form 1911.
Hi Rob I'm looking for two streets in the same area that seem to have been destroyed too. Jones St and Edward St. Edward comes up on a google search so presume thats the one but where is Jones? Can you help. Thanks
