    3. Hello all, Can anyone please help with this question on the history of Owen Street Tipton, although not strictly gen. Anyone familiar with Owen Street Tipton, will know of the dramatic change that took place in the 70's, but left standing was the Fountain Pub, from where the famous Tipton Slasher was known. The Fountain Pub now stands on the corner of Owen Street and Factory Road, this I have known since 1930/40's. My query is that it is now known that during the 1920's there was a building standing (attached) to the left of the Fountain, and that then stood on the corner. Does anyone know what that building was ?? and when and why was it demolished. TIA Thank you. Keith.C
