Jim McCurley – Jim regarding your observation:-“However, they tended to all look the same so it could be one of many”. Particularly true on wash day with lines, of drying clothing or sheets, zig zagging from side to side. It”s interesting that there was never an argument about the use of the available space. I guess each family had it”s day & stuck to it, unless there was a problem. Then of course, neighbours talked to each other.
This looks exactly like our backstreet, between Ellicott Street and Pearson Street, with the Lindsay Street backstreet at the top end. However, they tended to all look the same so it could be one of many.
