BOSTON STREET REDEVELOPMENT

Three photographs taken in 1959 during the extensive clearance of this large area. They show New England Street almost completely cleared. Also, top right, can be seen to the right the backs of some of the hovels of Elder Row. In the lower photographs the empty houses seen on the right were those on the east side of Elder Street, then about to be demolished. One photograph provides a view of a steam engine on the viaduct, even then a very rare thing.
