I used to catch the train to Urmston from here every Saturday.I used to help out in a shop owned by Mr &Mrs Morris,who used to have the papershop in Belle Green Lane. I always met my auntys dad on the return journey,as he came home from working at Irlam steelworks.Wish I could push rewind on the remote to take me back then.
I remember Mr Morris June he used to take photos at walking day and sell them from his shop window. where was lower Ince station?
Gerry,over bridge from Ince station,passing council offices and just after where the old clinic used to be.
Ah yes I remember it now, My dad used to go a comapny called ROBURITE from this station....
my dad caught the steam train to irlam he worked at the steel works can remember waiting for him on this station with my brothers alan & ernie sister mary on pay day for a penny for toffee
I remember this station from the mid to late 1950's,going with my Mum to visit some of her relatives who had moved to Islam for work in the steelworks.My Grandma and Aunty and Uncle lived in Christopher Street nearby, and my cousins were always playing in 'the jungle'near the clinic.Happy memories.
So?ry,only just seen that I had put Islam instead of Irlam !
I take it these r my cussons I still live next to the old station I went Irlam to
