Thank you very much for taking the trouble to look. I couldn't find anything on Google Maps either.

Hi Anajinn,

Unfortunately Wellington Street, Bradford no longer exists. A lot of the streets were demolished round there in the 60s, which included most of the streets my ancestors were brought up in (including Wellington Street), which is such a shame - I would love to be able to go and drive down them!

If you want to see where Wellington Street was, you can go to Streetmap.co.uk using the link below, and find the junction between Grey Mare Lane and Albert Street, Wellington Road ran pretty much straight down from there onto Ashton Old Road.

Thanks for that information, Flamingo. I found it on the 1935 map at http://www.artus-fh.co.uk/Manchester%201935/2c%201935.html
Wellington Street commences just above the oa of Ashton Old Road. I didn't realise that Bradford extended so far in that direction. Something new every day Smiley
