Harper Street Old Trafford
« on: Thursday 22 April 21 21:39 BST (UK) »
Hello all...newbie here.

Not quite sure how things work so here is what I need.  Trying to trace any reference to Harper Street Old Trafford from 1949 to about 1965.  It ran from Ayres Rd to St Brides St and was parallel to Clifton St and Shrewsbury St.
Any info, maps or photos, links etc would be appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome to RootsChat  :)

There is a good map here www.archiuk.com/cgi-bin/build_nls_historic_map.pl?search_location=,%20Old%20Trafford,%20Greater%20Manchester&latitude=53.460400&longitude=-2.287628&password=freesearch@freesearch.com

If you use the slider at the top, it will take you from 1883-1913 to current day. This is useful to see what streets remain and changes to an area over the years.

Not the period you are interested in, but hopefully helps in some way.
