i was relating whether this was relating the story of MJK from a nun who lived at Crispin Street.
i could not upload picture i wanted but posted these.
the nunnery , and "the horn of plenty " pub in Crispin Street .
which has been referred to has the " Britannia"

[Wickerman]

Here is a map of where Dorset St. meets Crispin St.
If you look at Dorset St. you can see on the north side (top side), a pub (P.H.) at each end.
At the eastern end where it meets Commercial St., that is the Britannia, it is identified as Ringers Buildings.
At the western end that P.H. is The Horn of Plenty, the photo on the left in your post.

Now, if you look across, opposite The Horn of Plenty, where Crispin St. meets Ravens Row, that is the 'Nunnery', identified as Providence Row Refuge & School. This I 'think'!, is your other photo on the right, though I cannot see it clear enough to be sure.

Hi Milky,

This is the hardback of the 1973 paperback I quoted you on The Greatest Thread of All. It's well-written and accepts the deep limitations of his theory which is admirable and honourable but sadly does not provide much more than an early platform for Druittists to build on as I recall.

i can see from wickermans maps,
when some one writes from standing point at sisters of mercy.( night refuge ) ladies entrance.
"across the road the Britannia "
they looking at the end of Dorset street.
you would see the entrance into there probably as a corner door.

[milchmanuk]

the photo of Crispin street , on the left by the little girl is the night refuge.
children playing in street as no green to. also no cars so safe to, relatively to do so after school.
the men must be goin home from work and finished for the day ?

Yes, the Ringers owned the Britannia.
The maps can be found at this link:

The Horn of Plenty.

The Horn of Plenty.

Great picture, Wick.

It's quite interesting to note the variety of men's head gear on display.
