Thanks for keeping the Forum interesting with your photos Peter.
That spot is where the German bomb created a deep crater in the middle of Lyon St & luckily didnt explode.

Thank you for that photo, Peter. It's nice to see Lyon Street, as it was.
This is where my Grandmother was born in 1895: Sarah Isabella Snowdon, who died in child-birth in 1918, giving birth to my mother.....

But that's another story!

My father was born at 47 Lyon St a few yards from the Caledonian Hotel.
