The picture was taken by me in about 1980 just prior to them being demolished due to subsidence. I think that's why I took the photo, and having just found it, it brings back many memories of staying there.
It was a two up, two down house, outside loo and I remember the floors were all uneven.
I`m sure someone was on WW a while since asking if anyone had photos of these particular houses. Pity not more folk took pics for posterity until it`s to late.
my great gran and grandad charnock lived at 139 warrington road, then my aunt ivy moved to 159 warrington road. i remember her saying that there used to be 11 of them living there at one time!!!
