My husband doesn’t remember much about the place, except it had a small backgarden and front led straight onto street. All the children played outside. They moved around 55/56 
His sister Janet did have a photo similar to the one shown on Gothic street but she can’t remember where it is. If she finds it I will send it to you. His neighbour at the time who lived across the road were the Drivers and he also remembers  Ada and Sidney Stamps lived there with their family. The Pawleys lived there and Sandra Pawley thinks the child in the photo is one of her sisters.
