Limey Walmsley's Lodge.

Between the Southport Rail line and canal behind what was gridweld.

There used to be an area on the bank near the railway that you had to be careful when walking on, as the lime was so slippery.

I often wondered if lime was brought by rail when the place was an ironworks. Could be wrong, but I think lime is added to assist the impurities to gather and form slag which rises to the surface.

There was a rumour that there was a lorry in the bottom of the pond years ago. (someone had supposedly used diving gear and seen it)
