I think you are right Helen, well done. The write up on it says it was bombed 24/25th November but the date on the picture could easily be wrong. It also says the arcades still stood but were dangerous so they were removed.

Certainly looks like it and the crenelated small tower on the right clinches it! Clever Helen.

Helen
How do you explain the window is next to the right hand wall with a door below? Your picture has the door below the middle window.

Because my pictures are looking at the side of the church rather along the aisle. I was just demonstrating that the windows and tower had similarities. There are other pictures online. Anne's picture from Google Earth confirms it.

Helen, fully explained, thank you, just takes me longer to read things these days.

No worries Kaga, that black and white picture has been confusing people for at least 5 years.

Another FB post but I'm not sure I agree on the reported location of Trafalgar Street? Any thoughts anyone?
