Rear
of Common Road
This
land is where the two houses that make up the Orchard are now built. At
one time, this land would have belonged to Bob Butterwood who also owned
the shop on Common Road at the same time (circa 1940s). The houses at the
back are probably Park Avenue. At the time this photograph was taken, the
shop (see photograph buildings 152) and land belonged to Mr
and Mrs Hudson whose daughter Debbie (later Greenwell and Brierley post
mistress) provided this photograph.
