What a great picture.I used to take my rabbit down the canal to chew on the clover.
harold i remember getting sticklebacks out of there,
3 spined and 10 spined
those were the days Peter,that spot was were the 2 iron tunnels ran up to bithels shop , before going towards the deep pit
if you go the other way harold
it used to go over a little bridge near factory fold.
that was good spot for minnows as well
there were 2 little bridges, 1 at the bottom of Park view, and the other, was as you say near to factory fold, it ran underground just in front of the old Star Pub, this had been made into 3 houses, the Seddons lived at the front, the Toothills in the next part, then the Crompton family, after that it was factory fold in which my cousins Doreen Norman Frank and Linda lived, (Norman and Frank you should know very well) !!
who are the children in the pick harold
are the two other boys billy and melvin
it was Billy and Melvin as well as myself
