Old Scholes 1940's - 1950's
Help, can anyone tell me where "Back Scholes" was. I think it was somewhere off Schofield Lane on the left, going from Greenhough Street... This will be in the 1940's 1950's
Thank you

I found 'back/behind scholes' on 1911 census as being behind 50 Scholes. Scholes, like Poolstock is both an area and a name of a street. If you look at google street maps for street 50 scholes it was opposite today's precinct. If you look at this WW1 map my best guess is 'Back scholes' is behind the main road behind the "S" of Scholes ?

Do you know anything about a suicide in 1943 in Scholes?
