If you want to wait a couple of weeks I'll take some pictures for you as I'm passing by the entrance.

I think it's the Bristol address Andy (NRM) is referring to. I didn't see it when I first read his post and had to re-read a few times before the penny dropped.

Hi Andy, it seems that the Jewish cemetery is quite big in bushley, and all of the internet leads take you there, which is why a can’t seem to find much info on any other cemetery s in that area.i am also not sure but I don’t think it was there in 1926.

I think that's because the address you are looking for may have been redeveloped in the 60s, and replaced by a large office/retail building called Transom House. I could be wrong about this, as I am totally unfamiliar with the area.

Directly opposite Transom House, on the other side of the road, is No.66. Other street numbers on that side seem to indicate all even numbers, so I assume the odd numbers are on the Transom House side. All things being equal (which they may not be) No. 67 seems no longer to be there.

Can you give us any further info regarding this query - it may help to throw some light on what you're looking for exactly and help with any assistance members might be able to offer?

Thanks jelly terror, I think you could be right, I think that what thought when I look on street view. Can’t really tell you anymore other than atthills medal index card has this address on it, so I guess he or a family member lived there. I am just putting together as much info as I can on this chap.
