Harry Rutherford's Festival of Britain Mural
Was the Irish quarter where the bus station is now? Donnybrook and Charles Street areas?
I think that it became the Irish quarter at some point. The original Irish quarter was around Hamnett street, I believe, as there used to be Catholic services held at what is now Santander Bank.
I remember Hyde Irish Club. Was it on Ridling Lane?
