My grandma and grandad had a little shop on Caroline Street, nearly opposite the Rifleman Pub that stood on the corner of Ashton Street. Grandparents name was Fairhurst.

I remember a man in a wheelchair who lived either in the row to the left or the one after, who repaired radios, I think his name was Jimmy Crompton
