Yes, that's it. We were scruffing around town and pulled back some old boards and crawled in.Would that be the old Smithfield Market site? That wasn't far from Tib St. Just up from Exchange Station.
Eccles was in Lancashire when I was born there in early 1960s,was a lovely place with an identity,not any more,unfortunately.
spent many a day in Eccles in my younger days in the 90s. Never called it Salford alway been know as Eccles a town in itselfPlease, pretty please include Eccles in that list because we are an old, old town as well and were subsumed by Salford. :-)
We date back to the 4th Century and there are signs that Eccles existed even before that. :-)
I nearly always say, when asked, that I am a Lancashire lass. I still consider myself a Lancastrian not a Greater Mancunian or Salfordian!! Just my quirky nature I guess. :-)Eccles was in Lancashire when I was born there in early 1960s,was a lovely place with an identity,not any more,unfortunately.
