Hi Cuthie
Yup. The tenement you can see is indeed Sandholes St which runs down the back of Martyrs Mem and joins Wellmeadow at the other end - the Rosebud pub was on the 'V' bit where the road split. Not sure what it's called these days! There used to be a public loo there too but long since closed.
I lived in Clavering St at the Well St end.

Thanks, Ann, for that information. I remember the pub and the toilets and also the solitary phone box at the V junction of Wellmeadow and Sandholes.. I lived in Well Street, just round the corner from Clavering Street. Best wishes.

Hi Cuthie
Were you connected in any way with the woodyard at bottom of Clavering St. I seen to remember one of the Joiners was called Cuthbertson? My mum and dad knew the guy quite well.
All I remem,ber is me dad chucking the meeses from the trap under the sink oot the windae into the yard using the wee shovel from the companion set by the coal fire - was next door to us. lol how times have changed!
(We didn;t have them a lot but when we did it was like ww2 with traps everywhere - think was a phobia from when my mum lived in Canal St during WW2 when there were rats everywhere! She was a we bit feart!)

Do you also remember the women in black in that shop on Well st. The one that sold everything and smelt of candles and paraffin? I always felt you had to whisper when you went in there. I remember just a mass of wooden drawers and they knew exactly where everything was - not a lable in sight.
And of course Crangles corner of Clavering st - the offy that sold the best tablet in the entire world?
