Irene. The photos of Ted Battersbys pals are faded because he always carried them in his wallet. Says a lot about the people back then. Ted had very fond memories of Victoria rd and Platt Bridge in those days. The chapel and the pub on Victoria rd are still standing and we have a couple of earlier photos to upload. Thank you for your kind comments Irene.
