Re: UD
Hi UD has lilts says Ashley Street was off Pearson Street it is no longer there.The best way to park to get to Pearson Street is to park up in Crown Point Shopping Center walk up to Mother care pass it on the left hand side follow the road to the exit turn right onto Butterly Street.When you come to the junction with Leathley Road turn right Pearson Street is about one hundred yards on your left,It sounds a long way but it is only a five minutes walk.the reason i said park at Crown Point is if you go on a week day you will be lucky to get a place to park on Pearson Street has all the road is full of cars belonging to people who work in the area.Ashley Street was on you right about where the gates are to get into the works yard
No matter were i end my days im an Hunslet lad with Hunslet ways.

Re: UD
my grandma used to live in ashley st. in about 1950ish, she used to look after me at her house, but i can't remember what number it was, it was towards the top of the street. i remember the shop at the bottom of the street and a pub where my granny used to take a jug to get it filled with beer at the side entrance. does anyone know what the pub was called.
