Fit factory

Does anybody remember the Fit Factory Gym in St Paul’s?

A gym in a church? Whatever will they think of next?

It was opposite the church in St Paul’s

I remember how opened it, would've been in the 90s

How did it open?

Who opened it?

My uncle Andy and a parter

St.Pauls is a church. It's on St.Pauls Avenue.
Buer Avenue is off St.Pauls Avenue, turn right off Warrington Road, then first right before the church.
The gym was in Buer Avenue.

You could've turned left off Warrington Road if you was coming from the Wigan direction.
Or off Poolstock Lane.

Knew Andy. Went there a couple of times. Not to train there, though.

I knew there was a factory there it employed mainly women a sewing factory ,but was at a loss about a gym, since been confirmed it was a gym later but has been closed for many a year. G.B.

It was indeed a small factory around the seventies called Cotton Goods.

There is a flock of blats there now.
