Just picked up on this thread due to the new postings.
Think you actually mean Garnethill which is where I live.
I took great delight in passing the book to some relatives to read before they came to stay.
My favourite references are in 'The Bogie Man' comics. The bit where there is a Sierra flying through the arches from Royal Exchange Square is particularily memorable.
