Perhaps it has been re-located in the Wadsley Bridge area. It needs some non-dizzy person to navigate around the district on Google Maps or even have a mooch around in person. Count me out.

What we need is a man in a white van We don't need a white van man, someone (mention no names) knew where it was all along, he's been Spar-ing with me. It's moved just a few yards from outside the old post office to a rather hidden position just up Leppings Lane on the Law Brothers / Spar forecourt. HD And I am Google dizzy.

Bayleaf Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 PM'd my answers - just in from work; sure I had posted about a Victorian one - some time ago mind you ... You posted a request for a photo of the Edward VIII one on Carterknowle Rd. and I posted one .It was one of my first few posts. I'll have a look... In the meantime here's Mr Google's image. Unfortunately the royal crest is on the pavement side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
