Street Name in Wrexham - Completed

[wilcoxon]

If you look at the enumeraters description for dist 34 it says ` left side of Salop Road road to end of Roderick Street ? and Wrexham Fechan including the Caia , Mount Pleasant, Dog kennel`
There was a large house called `The Mount` but it was knocked down for the building of the Ellesmere Railway, it overlooked Mount Street,

NOW - if you can remember the Anchor, then across the road was the old railway embankment and the remains of the stone walls. I guess it was around this area.

I remember the Anchor,  was it Alan who had it , and the lads from the gas and leather works who went there , when it shut we all moved to the Horsehoe in Bank St. happy days

Thanks wilcoxon, I think that confirms what I have been looking for. I do remember the bridge over Salop Road, and the trains running over it.
Yes, it was Alan Jones, landlord of the Anchor. My memories of the place was during the 3 day week and power cuts of the 70s. My home in Bennions Road and the Anchor were on different circuits so if the power was off at home it was on in the Anchor.
As you say, happy days.

Wilcoxon your bang on with your co-ordinates, been thinking about it all day and convinced myself it wasn't were we originally thought it would be but we managed to locate it on another map from 1874/81 and it was a row of roughly fifteen houses on what would now be the roundabout by Colour Supplies and Caia Road. As you stand on the roundabout and look up Caia Road it would have been on the right hand side, in 1899 the railway has gone straight through it, can't say I remember the old walls you are on about as I think they were demolished before my time.Your right about the old Mount building I bet it was a good piece of local history, sadly gone forever.

Thanks to everyone, I think that just about wraps up this enquiry.
