KILDARE ROAD
This photo of the family of my late Dad, Greg Bell, was taken at the wedding of his sister Valerie in 1967. My paternal grandparents raised the family at 15 Kildare Road.
From left are Tam, Dorothy, Patricia (Pansy), Sheila (Shirley), Valerie (the bride), Grandma Bell, Cyril, my Dad Greg, Olive, Vernon, Paddy and Aubrey.
"The droplets of water falling through, a vague recollection of hoardings on the walls and like so many I have walked and driven under the bridge, walked over it, don't recall it being built but do remember it being blown up and demolished, it didn't want to go. The view towards Mapperley with Kildare road on the Left 3 corner field to the right and the 40 bus turning/terminius probably where the photographer stood. Conkers were not the only objects to fall to the ground.there was no requirement to shout "fore" before throwing what could be heavy objects, used to persuade the conkers to fall off.." more here
