New England Street

Photographed in March 1957

This section of New England Street was acquired by the Council as part of the 1956 Compulsory Purchase Order. Many of these buildings were demolished in the 1960s. New England Street itself was lengthened in order to replace New York Street, and make the link to south Cheapside.

I am looking for information about a family in New England Street in the 1940s and 1950s. Does anyone know of a Cecil Walder Leonard and his wife Florence? They had about four or five children, and one son was called Stanley. Cecil was born in South Africa.
