Flintshire / Re: Stricklands Row, MOLD
« on: Thursday 28 November 24 15:46 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I’m not sure how old this thread is but anyway…..
The row of cottages that Wrexthedragon refers to was actually called Foundry Yard according to the town map of 1871. Stricklands Row was located behind what is today Ladbrokes. The row of cottages would have been accessed along what is today Grosbenor St but back in 1871, Grosvenor St did not exist. Interestingly, the right hand side of Fecci’s was a pub in 1871 called the Founders Arms. Today, the Derby & Joan and council car park occupy the area where Stricklands Row would have been. Hope this helps
