| This photo must date to the period between 1930 and 1934. The key indicators are the Wesleyan Chapel on Crescent Road, which exists in this photo and was, according to the chapel's website, opened in 1930; and Morgan Jones Park, which opened in 1934 does not appear to exist in this photo. |   pratjeffley | Friday 6th of July 2012 06:34:08 AM |
