A couple of things:-
I was offered some free toiletries and the collection address was one of the streets that I walked along every school day between the age of 4 to 11. It had the same paving slabs that I remember, with channels running from the garden wall to the gutter to take the rainwater away from the house. At regular intervals one of the slabs would have "EL" carved into it. As kids we decided it meant "Elephant Legs" and our game was to run along the pavement without stepping on the cracks and jumping over any slab with EL on it. If you landed on EL you would grow up with Elephant Legs. It was obvously right as my legs are more elephant than giraffe!
Happy memories of those carefree school days.
