Geddy, was it a shot looking down Miller's Court with a man apparently holding a broom?

Geddy, was it a shot looking down Miller's Court with a man apparently holding a broom?

Don't think so, I think it showed a bloke coming out holding a kettle asking if anyone could fix his spout!

Dorset Street, 1895

Gosh just walked through Mitre Square for the first time in about 6 months....the bench and flower bed section are now gone! I know they werent original but still had been there ever since my first visit years before. Also...walked up the alley by The White Hart and someone had started writing with chalk "The juwes are the men.." and presumably were interrupted. I see the flats at the end of that alley by the Tabram murder site have now been demolished! The area is slowly vanishing!

What's happening peops!?

Hey guys n gals, have just been having a look round the forums for the first time in a while. Noticed there hadn't been any activity on this thread for a while so I thought I'd try to kick start it! So has anybody got any new photos of (whats left) of the sites? IS there anything left of Mitre Sq?? Look forward to seeing some new photos hopefully.

All the best

John

This is just about as close as you can currently get to White's Row (Miller's Court/Dorset St) now, photo taken last week (Dec '16)

By contrast this is my 2012 painting of the site from a photo taken in 2011

Thanks for the Doré drawing of Wentworth Street, avvie. I don't recall seeing that one before.
