Yes, I do remember the name Croston's my mother would have visited Granny Croston many times - as I recall - the children of that family were older than me.
But I do recall the following - same side of the street as your good self.
*Fairhurst - Ward - Porter - *Hitchens - *Hughes - Croston - *Taylor - Burrows - ???? - Ashall.

On the other side of the road.

*Forshaw - ???? - *Simm - ????? untill you came to *Heaton - Houghton - Connor.

Those with a * before thier name would have had children around my age.
Thats about as far as I can get - left Chatham St in 1959 - came back - married an Irish girl - Lived in Chorley - then Ince - left around 1967/68 went to Ireland, still here.

Perhaps you could fill in some more names for me please.

Best wishes to all your family.
Kindest regards.

Jack
