We think the location of this old Goods Shed was on the former Great Central St Helens Branch just east of the present day West Coast Main Line.

A very interesting photo of a time gone by. I seem to remember a recent discussion about the adjacent Golborne North Station in the Communicate (Places) section. Does anyone from Golborne remember the Station and Goods Shed?
Thanks Chris for uploading these interesting photos.

That's where Murphys is now on Wigan Rd Golborne, used to play in there as a lad.
