This is Bickershaw Lane. The house on the corner and the terraced row are still there, looking exactly the same now.
Across the road is Atherton St and a car sales place. A Post Office is a bit lower down than the houses, and the railway from Spring Branch to Bick Coll is just out of site past the tree.
The end terrace house was known as the cristal pallace,because it had 'more windows than the cristal pallace'. home of count harry.
The Forresters Pub used to be across the road. My Grandparents lived in the small row of terraced Houses in front of the Bowling Green. I think it was Number 500.
My grandma and granddad McNamara lived over the bridge last house on the bend.
