Tumtell, you are right about Jack Arkwright living there but before him Alice Rigby lived there but i remember a family from Liverpool who had been bombed out came to live in the cottage, i was a friend of one of the sons Teddy, we used to fish there & skate on,t clog sides when frozen, the council started to fill the clay pit in at the end of the war, we had some good times at the Tile Sheds. MEMORIES.

Tumtingle, don't forget I'm only a pup but seen and done things I shouldn't have with having a big brother and older sisters, as you know the older lads on the estate always looked after the younger lads
