The houses are still there but don't look quite the same because they were renovated several years ago and Kays Hardware is now the end house of that row.
At the other end of the row, near the tall green lamp post is the turning in to Worsley Mesnes Club and the Health Centre.
Beyond that, on the extreme left of the picture, you can see the Tippings Bridge - now just a grassy slope on each side of the road.
Is this the row of houses behind which is the new Worsley Mesnes Health Centre, Chandler House?
yes the new health center is at the back of this row of houses.the hospice was there before.i lived in the row of houses just a little further down,this side of the bridge across from the tippings arms
my in laws, keith and sheila henry, had the paper shop opposite kays until about ten years ago!!
Hello Kathleen, your house of many years ago is behind the Banner. I love these old photos of Worsley Mesnes, and Poolstock too, since I went to Poolstock C of E School in the 40's and early 50's.
Hi Teresa Henry, I was a paper boy back in 1983 at the very same paper shop, before your relatives took it over. I remember they bought if of Florence Hilda Miller, usually known as Hilda . Do you have any idea what happened to her? I remember she had a house up the side of the Bold Horel, Clifton St I believe.
