My grandmother lived at no.2 Crimdon Street as a child, at that time. She and my grandfather continued to live there after they wed in 1929 and only left the house around 1974 when the street was finally demolished. I visited no.2 throughout my childhood and remember the staircase being so very steep you almost needed a rope and crampons to reach the tiny square landing at the top. Happy times.

My gt. uncle's wife Mary Ann Shears was badly injured in the bombardment and in the 1911 census they lived at 7 Crimdon Street. She tried to hide under the table but was hit in the leg and died 4m later. Does anyone know who the man is in this picture - I'd love it if it's my gt. uncle..
