Like so many streets in this area there is no trace on the ground. A major new road cutting between Wellington Road North and Manchester Road was an excuse to flatten much of this area and build new terraced houses. |

| Passenger train, coaches still in LNWR livery 4 years after the "grouping", possibly 42ft. non corridor bogie vehicles.
The loco is a little difficult to make out, but could be an 18 inch goods, (also known as a "Cauliflower") as altered with a "Belpaire" firebox by the LMS around 1925. |

 Public House. At some time it has been extended by one bay to the left
The pub was a Hardy's Crown Ales pub, later taken over by Bass. It then suffered a decline but was taken over at the end of 2012 and refurbished.
It is still the Hope Inn and now has its own brewery in the cellar, making Fool Hardy Ales, real ale in casks and bottles.

There has been a lot of redevelopment since this image was taken with lots of shiny new houses and a new street layout. The continuation of Love Lane still exists to the South but this stretch is now Cotswold Road |
