I'm not sure if this is a little bit lower down than where you are talking about.
My Grandmother used to live on Grafton Ave (Baxendan) early 60's and you could walk from there through the woods down passed a stream and a big old mansion house and come out at Calegon Foam. I have not idea what this house was called or if it is still there or who lived there. This type of property used to belong to a mill or mine owner.
Then there also used to be the ambulance station there but this was almost at the junction with Manchester Road.
