Pritchard), New York, USA.
Hello Webmaister: ...... lovely pages you have of Lily Street. The
picture taken from Springfield Road, is all new to me, and not the way I
remember it. In my mind's eye, I can still see Springfield school, and
the church around the corner next to it and Craig's dairy across the
street. All the new houses look great, even the view down to
Kinnear Road, where the railway and the stables used to be.

Look at the photo above these are the same railings
However this time I am looking in the opposite direction onto the site
where Our Lady of Fatima Chapel used to be |
|

Blue dots is Lily
Street Green is where
Chapel was
This map will give you an idea where I stood taking
these photos

Dalmarnock Community Centre, 3 Lily Street.
The old Springfield Primary School girls playground was in Lily Street
and most of where the Community Centre now is was where that playground
was. Part the centre was where the Dalmarnock Parish church was but most
of this location was where the school itself was. The church was
situated at 103 Springfield Road and closed in 1977
