I have the same map and it just cuts this area off.. we will try to come up with a better one... you mentioned the reservoir, it seems it was right at the top of Green and Bradbury streets.... right at the back towards the train lines... I dont recall it myself. While we have been researching stuff for here it as surprised me just how many of these small reservoirs they were dotted about Hyde.. <br />I hope you call back again soon, enjoy your time here and feel free to commentand join in.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04167792394551286975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599481671908734427.post-76104026831780586762010-09-08T23:31:48.470+01:002010-09-08T23:31:48.470+01:00HI, My name is Julie Roberts and I used to Live on...HI, My name is Julie Roberts and I used to Live on Meadow Street.
