On the Billy Butler show today Vincent Burke covered the Wallace Case. He made a few glaring errors (maybe because of his age!!) I hope he isn't reading this!!

He is covering the second part in two weeks.

Thanks Rod,

Yes. He also mentioned "Herbert Moore" (should be Hubert). Think he also stated that the collection money was upstairs and Wallace's personal money was downstairs - should be the other way round - but I suppose this could be argued - we only have Wallace's word for that.

Vincent burke has the look and the voice for these parts and I hope i'm not letting that cloud my judgement of him being generally good but like you say, he can make glaring errors and omitions which for murders cases are not good really. I don't think much of his round-up in his wallace case dvd (not a mention of parry anywhere) or his stance on capital punishment being that it certainly didn't prevent killings pre abolition as that is something we can never know.

I was disappointed with the DVD

I don't think I've seen it - I went to the Radio Merseyside shop but they didn't have it...

I'm sure I have seen it in the 08 shop in Whitechapel

**Mark R** · 03-28-2008

Don't think it was there either...

Great discussing the case today with Mark.

You will have to show me a pic of the steps you were talking about...

Great discussing it with you DC and lindylou too! I'd probably discuss it so much I'd have to be told to shut up

Here are some pics of the steps at the back /top of Letchworth Street & Sedley Street...

p.s. If you go to my flickr site they are better copies.

Can't remember whether I've posted this before - the Rawdon Library, Breck Road. Wallace use to frequent it.

I had a library membership there right up until the 1990's when it closed. The library moved further up Breck rd.

Brilliant photos lindylou

Yes, that is where I think the dairy would have been. That building looks like it could have been but looks more modern - the brickwork on the front and back looks modern but the sides look original. But I believe you have the right place
