We had a hardware store on Morris Green Lane, then we moved into a house 2 streets away, then we moved out of number 12, four doors up to number 22.Two years there then moved another 4 streets away near to the Ellesmere Club. Not been back there for 30 years... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morris Green isn't really an area, it's just a group of streets that doesn't want to to be called a part of Daubhill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
