I have to challenge the date of this photograph. I was born and raised at the bottom of Moor End with Hastings coal yard and orchard behind. What is now Orchard Close is clearly visible in the photo.
Hastings coal yard was built on in the late 1980's after I left home, so this photo can be no earlier that 1985.
There are several other anomalies also... The features of Brunswood park for example, that date the photo to about 1990..
