No, it wasn't the barrel yard. That backed directly onto the infant's playground at Moor End school...and stank!

This was a smaller yard on Thomas Street. It was behind the Royal Oak, and had high cement rendered walls, and big gates that opened on to Thomas Street.

That's where I always thought the bomb my Granny saw and heard, fell.
