I used to know Collingwood fairly well in the 1940’s and 50’s , travelling by bus down Johnson st every day and often stopping off to check the shops .
My grandparents in 1900 lived in a terrace house in Gold St. Clifton Hill.
I have written a short story about their lives then for the vic genie Soc.
Would you be able to tell me more about Gold and the Edinburgh Gardens?
Would you like a copy of my story? wendy hebbard (Woodend)
