whereabouts was this path? would it be Goose Green end?
Highfieldlass,
This is a picture of the old railway bridge remnants: A path from the brook at the end of Duke St, met with a path at the end of Lady Lane. What was left of the bridge was about 100 Yards or so further up the hill, where the path made an S-bend. I remember it well.It was one of the old railway bridges, to do with one of the Collieries round about ( not sure which )
Tony,
Have you any more pic's of this area ? If you have it would be great to see them.
yes it was goose green end, bottom of lady lane,go up.it is facing,from this shot,looking between,enfield st,foundry lane.
Didnt think I recognised it, we were from the Highfield end! Goose Green was miles away! Or at least it seemed to be back then! Dont you wish you had taken more photos when we were younger?!
i remember this path very well used to play round there do u remember the yo yo my grandma and grandad used to live near the green hill in ladies lane in the old houses wish i had pics off that
