Above (TOP) is a card postmarked 1908. In view is Queen Street as seen when looking towards the prom from near Market Street. Foreground (left) is the People’s Boot Company on the corner where today we would find Lloyds TSB. Foreground (right) is what could be a very early motor scooter or – according to one of my neighbours – a large insect.
(BELOW) is a Raphael Tuck & Sons postcard from a later period. It shows Water Street as seen from what some people call the ‘Clwyd Alyn corner’ of Crescent Road, looking towards Wellington Road. The first door in the picture would be 57 Water Street. The long row of front garden walls no longer exists.
