Where does the one begin, and the other end?

OK I know Bryn is within Ashton. At least historically, was part of Ashton UDC.

Looking at tomplum's comment about Bryn pubs, I wondered if the pub that was on Wigan Road, near to thould grammar school(Was it called the Star?) was considered Bryn or Ashton?

Tiz on the Bryn side of Nicol Road, and I think that Whitledge Green, just across the road, was considered Bryn when I was a kid. However the school, just yards away, I never heard described as being in Bryn.

Similarly, Before the district became built up, in latter half of last Century, did not what were known as Ashton Mill Fields stretch from the Railway, to Low Bank Road? ie From Bryn to Ashton. I guess they were the separator, if not an actual boundary, so where, now that buildings cover this area, does Bryn begin?
