PONY DICK INN + WINDY HARBOUR STOCKS

Hi all, this is my first time on here, but can anyone help me with any info on the Pony Dick inn at Pony Dick, Highfield/Winstanley? Also on the old stocks at the top of Windy Harbour? Thanks x

Have a look at 'Founded on Coal' by Ray and Derek Winstanley. It's about the Pemberton / Winstanley / Highfield area...........

Thank you! will look at that now . . .

Pony Dick:

In those days, you could stand in the middle of the road, for as long as you wanted, without getting run-over...................
And, that's ART, as a boy, standing in the middle of the road for as long as he wanted, with his flat cap and clogs on!

You do flatter me, Honkeytonk ,old boy

And thats Harold under that lampost. And up in background stands a very young Gordon.
Art and Harold had given young Gordon a head start because they caught him earlier on issuing tickets on their penny farthings.

Now there's a bungalow there and a nice pub across the road eh!!how time changes things.
