Picture ID - s00754
Known info -
Unidentified Road, Parson Cross Estate

Linda
It looks to me like Wordsworth Ave, approaching Ritz cinema. I'm sure the Forty Foot pub was built where those trees are!

Ron
i believe this is Elm Lane

Jack
It's top of Linsey Ave near the park.

Michael
This is Wordsworth Avenue just before the turn off that leads to Parson Cross libary.

Jim
I agree with Eileen. The building to the left of the tree, on the right of the picture may be the Shiregreen hotel that has just been knocked down.

Lisa
Looks to me like Buchanan Road just before the crossroads with Adlington.

Nog
Could be Elm Lane, next to the Elim chapel and the entrance to Lyndsey Avenue just visible beyond.

Bob Turnip
This picture was taken on Shirecliffe Boulevard. I know it.

Steve -
It's wordsworth ave near ritz.

nathan -
My grandad says this picture is
wordsworth ave just near the mount tabour church.

Violet Smith
- I think this could be Buchanan Road

Ken Turton - I moved onto the Person Cross estate in 1937. I'm sure this is Wordsworth Avenue somewhere above the Ritz Picture Palace.

Eric Denton - Could be Elm Lane

Eileen - I think this is the Ecclesfield end of Wooley Wood bottom

plain talker - It looks like elm lane to me

David Fairest - I thought at first it was elm lane as it used to be but the building to right hand side at the rear doesnt ring true

Peter Sarson - Absolutley Wordsworth Ave near Mount Tabor Church opposite Dor Royd Lane

Chris Deakin - Must be Wordsworth Ave

Carol Worthington - it looks like southy green road just past longley park on the other side of the road.

russ - elm lane corner of longley park with southygreen road see before council pull these down so of the houses are missing but view spot on

Malcolm Pitts - I lived on Parson Cross from the age of 3 until mid 30s - I think that Ken Turton is correct. The houses at left and centre are on Wordsworth Avenue, left hand side facing Hillsborough, and the more distant house right of centre is on Southey Green Road on the hill up to Southey Green.

donna - could be buchanan rd parsons cross,i was born at no 195.

Andre - Ken Turton's nearly right - notice the end house is up in air a bit. Try the junction 'tween Wordsworth Ave and Wordsworth Crescent as you approach from Mount Tabour Church

Anne - With Mount Tabour church behind you (bottom of Southy Hill), It's looking towards the junction of Wordsworth Crescent and Wordsworth Avenue.

Dennis Hanna - Looks like Elm Lane.

Jack - russ is right it's elm lane corner of longley park with southygreen road.

Phil Woodger - My Grandfather (Les Smallwood) lived in Masters Rd. Could the top of the picture be the circle at the top of the rd?

carole - i think it is wordsworth avenue between mount tabor and ritz picture house.

tash - it's Totley Brook Road.

Jack - russ is right everyone else is wrong it is elm lane corner of longley park.

Lucille - I believe it is Shirecliffe Road,the opposite side of the road used to be the Atlas and Norfolk Sports Ground, it has now been built on.
