While some of these scenes will be familiar, others may not be.

16. 1966
Scholes in July 1966 as demolition of the old streets was under way. Hardybutts is the street going up on the right with Spring Street first right. The building in the foreground is the Stanley Arms pub. The building at the top of the picture on the left was originally Seddons stocking factory but by this time The Paradise Club. The narrow pathway, bottom left, was Amy Lane which ran down to Scholes Bridge. The road in the foreground is Warrington Lane and the churches in the background are St. Catherine's, centre, and St. Patrick's, right.
