I lived on Wolseley Street back in 1973 to 1977.
Barwell Road faced Wolseley Street on the Garrison Lane, it was on the corner of Barwell Street that The Acorn was situated(Garrison Lane end), I think it was around 1975-76 that the Acorn was closed down, the Beau Brummie is not the Acorn, it was a Davenports when I was there and I think it was called the 'Hen & Chickens'
The area was generally run down , many of the houses on Wolseley Street were empty and there were some back to back houses on the Garrison Lane that were removed to make a bomb-peck, although run down, it was a great adventure ground for me and my brother, we were only around 7-10 at the time.
The Garrison Lane park used to have the Fair every year, one half was tarmac and the other half grass, but over the years the grass has grown threw the tarmac to make it all grass, that may be why the fair does not go there anymore.
I noted on the map that half of Artillery Street had disappeared, at the very end of Wolseley Street there used to be a 'Youth Club' with a Christmas party every year(some held in St Andrews Church(not there anymore) , they also had an old coach there where they used to have bingo sessions, some happy times, but it was a bit of a dump at that stage.
It is nice to see what it looks like now, but sad in a way that only memories remain. :-(
