Brilliant pictures Keith. How good does that ground and clubhouse look? Do you have any info on the football club Keith? Wouldn't mind writing an article up on that.

I've already put this on >Photo's of Ashton, Warrington Road<
In the late forties / fifties the entrance led to Cromptons recreation ground, incorporating a soccer pitch complete with clubhouse and grandstand.
I spent many a Saturday afternoon watching ‘Cromptons Recs' with my dad, a bottle of pop and a bag of crisps (one flavour was available, plain - with a little blue bag of salt).
