Dear Sheila, I expect I did know your brother at least by sight (in those days we tended not to associate with anyone a year or two younger) and I certainly knew Buster, who lived in the front of the back-to-back in the back part of which were the Heavisides). And I agree, in my judgement those good old streets (and incidentally the Ranch, and Pie Clark) should have been preserved as National Monuments. I have no idea who the chap in the surgery may have been, unless it was my younger brother on a visit to our old haunts - he actually lives in Doncaster.

: When I lived in Darlington Road, in
