Organgrinder Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It's "The Farm" - bottom of Granville Road - now very sadly gone and Granville College stands on this site. Can't remember who built it, but it was the British Railways Headquarters in the 1950's and, as a messenger boy, I used to deliver there from Wicker Goods station.
