Grouty's Lane, St George, Bristol
« on: Thursday 21 August 14 14:32 BST (UK) »
I'm researching the families of the men whose names are inscribed on the Hanham War Memorial.  One address keeps coming up - Grouty's Lane, St George.  It doesn't seem to exist any more.  Does anyone know if has been re-named or where it was?

From this website it looks as though Grouty's Lane has been renamed Furber Road ...

Thank you Priscilla  8)

Makes sense, some are also at Magpie Bottom.  The road is along the St George/Hanham borders

It also answers why Furber.  A BOGOF reply  ;D
