BRIGHT HILL
The original Bright
hill, leading from Sydenham Road up to Harvey Road,
was extremely steep.
In creating the car park in the late 60s the engineers
joined Bright Hill
with Hill Place - a cul de sac with which it ran parallel -forming a
gentler slope. Some 80 small dwellings were demolished in the
process. The retaining
wall of the end of Hill Place can be seen - about halfway
up Bright Hill.
At the bottom were some shops - a newsagent, butcher, fish and chips, a
grocer and Mr
J. Klein - a Jewish Tailor. |
