Hi I lived in maysoule road on the early 70s as a kid. Number 7. My grandad lived opposite at number 14 for years tho. Him and my nan were Em (Emily) and Bert (Albert) turner..my nans original surname was radmall or radnel. My mum had an elder brother called Alan and a younger brother called Len. Is it right that maysoule road was originally a horseshoe shape until it got bombed? There was a story that a bomb dropped next to my nan and grandad house on the other part.of.maysoule road where they lived before moving to number 14, but didn't go off. The street got evacuated but My grandads savings were his in his tin in the shed. Aparantly he was.told.he couldn't go and get his tin but he said 'sod that, the Germans ain't having my.money', jumped over the whole the bomb had made and went and got his money. My dad was from a family of 13 from benfield street,the vallances
