Re: 35, Berkeley street, Lawrence Hill Bristol

Berkeley Street was a 'No Thoroughfare' running from 131 Lawrence Hill through to the Bristol Waggon works. I don't know if it still exists.

Re: 35, Berkeley street, Lawrence Hill Bristol

HI Kevin, Thanks very much for your reply. I forgot I had left this message on. I am still interested in Milk Street but have found where Berkeley Street WAS, thanks to the Lawrence Hill History group. Berkeley Street became the Lawrence Hill Bus Depot, Now VOSA.The main building is called Berkeley House.
I have also found a brilliant web site that shows maps from 1750 - 2010. I have found a few roads that are no longer there. It will even overlay the new map over the older one using the "Spy Glass " function.
Thanks again for replying. Here is the link if you are interested: http://maps.bristol.gov.uk/knowyourplace/

Regards. Martin.
