Hi Cyril - I think it's slightly lower down than Enfield St - the house on the left is the first house after the row that run downhill from Norley hall Ave. It's just about opposite Brown St.

Great pic tho!

Thanks Barry - knew it began with a "B" ! - as a matter of interest does Brown St connect up to it, from Enfield St or have I been dreaming?

The fancy building on the left became a funeral parlour a few years ago although i dont recall which company or if it still is one.
